On the first episode of season 2, Faratoluwa (“Fara” for short) is an Environmental Engineer and avid sports lover. He completed his grad school education in 2020 at the University of New Haven Connecticut USA. 

We had a great season premiere with Fara, as he led us openly into his world and his story on this episode. 

From delayed applications to grad school in Australia, to a rush-hour application to New Haven, adjusting to a different physical climate, academic experience, and metric system, and eventually, job-seeking Fara shares with us a very interesting real-life “how it started vs how it’s going” story involving drastic environmental changes.

He discusses climate change, pollution, the need for clean energy, conversations around climate change, and its intricacies and implications across the world with us. Another important thing he walks us through is the process of selecting courses appropriately to equip him adequately for the climate problems he sought to solve.

A great conversation to start the season with, and it definitely left us more enlightened. 

We bet it’ll enlighten you too!
