University communities are essential in the effort to build a more sustainable future. As UNB works towards its climate action and sustainability goals, UNB Sustainability is happy to highlight UNB community members who are making a difference on campus as “Green Champions”.
Our first Green Champion of 2025 is Ricardo Ehrler:
My name is Ricardo Ehrler, and I am in my first year of the Master's in Environmental Management Program at UNB.
I am from Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Growing up in a rural area and having a bond with nature has made sustainability a part of me since I was born. As I grew older, I always dreamed of being a force of change in the world and eventually changing our current culture into a more sustainable one.
Volunteering with UNB Sustainability department during Sustainability month in October was a warm and insightful experience as I could actually see that changes can be done; and that there are many people interested in making the world a better place.
Sustainability is no longer a thing off tomorrow; it is a thing of today, and we must take action!
