Judith

Judith Thompson is a passionate educator at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, where she specializes in environmental science and sustainability. Holding degrees that span multiple disciplines—a master's in environmental engineering from Stanford University, a master's in education from the University of Toronto, and a Ph.D. in ecology from McGill University—Judith has dedicated her career to promoting sustainable practices and raising awareness about climate change.

Since 2019, Judith has been an advocate for green technology, working closely with local governments and international organizations to implement innovative solutions that address environmental challenges. She has authored over 500 articles and 30 books, including titles like "Sustainability in Urban Planning," "The Impact of Renewable Energy on Global Economies," "Eco-Innovations: A Blueprint for Future Cities," and "The Role of Education in Environmental Preservation."

In early 2022, Judith collaborated with renowned environmentalist Jane Goodall on a project aimed at protecting endangered species within urban areas. Later that year, she partnered with engineers from Tesla to explore the integration of solar energy into public transportation systems. Her work with policy makers has led to the development of a new curriculum designed to educate future leaders about the importance of ecological stewardship.

For five years, Judith has written a monthly blog on sustainable living for The Nature Conservancy, and now contributes to EcoWatch with insights on combating climate change. She regularly offers workshops for educators and city planners; and speaks globally on topics ranging from renewable resources to biodiversity conservation. Recently, Judith appeared on documentaries such as National Geographic’s “Our Planet” series, CBC’s “The Nature of Things,” and BBC’s “Planet Earth Live.” For TED Talks, she delivered speeches on innovative approaches to reducing carbon footprints and fostering a sustainable future.
