(Highlights) JESS WILBER

"When I was in highschool, I recognized that climate change was going to be the largest problem facing my generation and future generations, and I couldn’t help but feel like there was nothing I could do in the face of such an impending problem. So I was actively looking at different organizations that I could become involved with that would help me develop the skills and knowledge I needed to be an effective climate advocate."Jess Wilber is a graduate of Oberlin, where she double-majored in Environmental Studies & East Asian Studies. She’s been working with Citizens’ Climate Lobby since freshman year, helping to pioneer programs for students in Higher Education. Among the first members of the Campus Leaders Program, empowering students to become climate advocates and organizers, she founded Oberlin’s CCL Chapter, helping create a climate movement on campus. As the first Great Lakes Regional Fellow, she managed students and educators engaged in climate advocacy, coordinating research and projects with education, diversity, and international teams. A Coordinator for Senior Stewards Acting for the Environment, she’s also a musician, poet, certified mediator, and world-ranked equestrian.· www.citizensclimatelobby.org
