On the occasion of the Copenhagen summit, the international TV network France 24 invited Dr. Ruchi Anand on December 28 to participate in a debate about how the meat industry affects the environment through its impact on climate change. According to the U.N. report "Livestock's Long Shadow - Environmental Issues and Options"(2006) the meat producing industry is responsible for 18% of global greenhouse gas emission worldwide. Dr. Anand brought her expertise on environmental issues and policies to discuss this problem. View France 24's "Face Off" show "Eat less meat to save the planet?" |

Ryan MillsUnited States From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it.. |
