Mexico City
Wherever you look, our society is in desperate need for new ways to secure our minimum material needs, be happy and be respectful of the environment and the live forms around us. I have been fortunate enough to work on this issues and try to contribute as much as can.
As an environmental and resource economist, it is precisely that connection between the needs and aspirations of society and the limits and ethical considerations related to our environment that interest me the most.
Beyond my professional challenge, urban cycling has become my personal challenge, adding my wheels to the hundreds of "Chilangos" in Mexico City who believe in the bicycle as a sustainable mode of transportation.
