  Hello, my name is Amira Jorsling, and I'm 22 years old. I'm now pursuing a degree in Environmental Science and Sustainable Technology.🌱✨ My academic career began at the University of the West Indies' Cave Hill Campus in Barbados, where I studied Environmental Science and Sustainable Energy Management. Later, I transferred to UWI St. Augustine in Trinidad, where I'm pursuing my studies in Environmental Science and Sustainable Technology. My passion in environmental science is studying climate change and comprehending its global consequences. I am passionately interested in how climate change affects ecosystems, communities, and future generations, and I want to be a part of the solutions that promote resilience and sustainability. My passion for the environment stems from my mother, who began her career as a hydrological technician and is now an environmental specialist.
