JEDDAH: Saudi environmentalist Hassan Alzain is using research, writing and environmental policy to promote climate resilience and sustainability in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
A graduate of the Yale School of the Environment, Alzain recently earned a master’s in environmental management, with specializations in climate change science and solutions, and energy and the environment.
Alzain told Arab News: “Seeing our nation place environmental sustainability, green energy, and planetary protection at the very heart of its futuristic economic blueprint was incredibly inspiring.
“Transitioning from that local momentum to the rigorous, multidisciplinary environment at Yale allowed me to see exactly how global climate science intersects with our national aspirations.
“Sitting in rooms with international experts solidified my realization that Saudi Arabia is not just participating in the global climate dialogue, we are actively leading it. This journey crystallized my commitment to developing the scalable, practical resilience frameworks needed to turn our ambitious Vision 2030 environmental goals into a sustainable reality for future generations.”
