Thomas Beach

Tom is creating a series of short videos for EESI that seek to capture the main points of complicated topics. His work as a volunteer blends an interest in the environment with a passion for filmmaking. "Climate change can be scary and confusing," he says. "But there's lots of good news that gets lost in the doom and gloom. We try to show that, yes, we're facing an existential crisis, but there are people taking steps to address it right now. That's a story that needs telling." Tom grew up in Penfield, New York, and has a BS in Chemistry from St Lawrence University and a BSN in Nursing from Johns Hopkins University.
