My name is Frida Diaz. I am a student currently enrolled at High Tech High North County. The High Tech community is made up of individual Villages, locations with their own respective high school, middle school, and elementary school. The High Tech systems employs the project based learning program which allows its students to collaborate with each other and create a final product worth their time, effort and stress.
I, as a nap enthusiast, aspiring engineer, and "tree hugger" or conservationist spend my time doing a variety of things. If I am not napping through the day or car rides,I can be found either working in my garden or in the garage building a contraption of some sort out of recycled materials.
I would really like to focus in on the environmental aspects of engineering; environmental engineering is the integration of sciences and engineering principles to improve the natural environment, to provide healthy water, air, and land for human habitation and for other organisms, and to clean up pollution sites. I aspire to become a resourceful engineer in the future, I want to build the best product, cause no unnecessary harm, inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis.
We face a great crisis: climate change, extinction, destruction of amazingly beautiful, wild places. As Henry M. Paulson, Jr., former secretary of Treasury, said in a New York Times Op-Ed,
“This is a crisis we can’t afford to ignore… We can see the crash coming, and yet we’re sitting on our hands rather than altering course.”
