Women In Defense of the World’s Ecosystems

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UCLA chapter.

All over the world women are willing to fight for what they believe in. From the current situation with the war on women, to protecting delicate environments in which the world’s ecosystems are in danger, they are taking a stand. Women like Jane Goodall (the famous primatologist, whose Disney Film “Chimpanzee” is now in theaters), champion the right for everyone to have a safe environment to live in. This group of fierce individuals, who include: a Nobel Prize laureate, an orangutan expert, and a biologist, have worked very hard to protect our most precious natural resources. And have done womenkind a great service by prompting future generations of women to take charge in a cause they believe in. As the great Abigail Addams once said, “Remember the ladies!“

Madeline Hunt is a senior at UCLA majoring in Communication Studies with a minor in Spanish. Originally from the laidback beach-town of Santa Barbara, the California native finds the fast-paced nature and eccentricity of LA extremely exciting. Once more, she decided to expand her horizons when she studied abroad this past fall in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Madeline wants to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and is considering broadcast journalism and public relations as potential options. On campus, she is currently the Public Relations & Marketing Director for the student- run organization Fashion and Student Trends and an intern at E! News. She served as an entertainment reporter on UCLA’s accredited student newspaper, The Daily Bruin, under the video division and is a current member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. During her free time, she enjoys playing tennis, exercising, going to the beach, shopping (online shopping will be the death of her!), reading Glamour and Cosmo, eating Mexican food and sushi, spending time with her friends, practicing her Spanish, and satisfying her weakness for caffeine with Starbuck’s lattes.
