Summer Environmental StudyMadison Barnes
2016 The Mary T. Carothers Summer Environmental Studies Scholarship
Madison Barnes is a sophomore Environmental Science major with a minor in Economics at Duke University in Cary, North Carolina. As a member of the University of California-Davis Sustainable Cities of Northern Europe Program, she will travel to nine cities in Scandinavia/Northern Europe to learn how these cities have successfully incorporated nature into urban planning. Through research, discussion, field trips, and speaking with local experts, she expects to gain a better understanding of the differences in land use and resource laws, cultural differences, and how each urban area functions. Her project will focus on environmental lessons that can be applied to U.S. cities.
