About Nolan Babin:

Coming from Hamilton, Ontario, I’m currently in my second year of Natural Resources Conservation in the Faculty of Forestry. My interest in environmental issues and the natural world stem from growing up by a Great Lake and the issues surrounding its marsh and shorelines. While at UBC, I want to discover more specialized areas of study, including forestry, agriculture, geography, and, marine/ aquatic ecosystems. I hope this range of education in various environmental sectors and sciences will give him a better understanding of broader global issues while fulfilling my program's international travel requirements.
