About Emily Federer

Humanity and environmental justice motivate me to protect communities’ environmental health through investigations, analysis, mitigation, policy and public awareness. I work diligently to educate about environmental connections and impacts of daily activities. I am optimistic that love for Earth’s natural beauty might protect the necessity of breathing air, drinking water and eating food so our future generations may gracefully enjoy all the charming curiosities of growing old.
