As a celebration of Earth Day 2020, DPI senior Anna Betts' senior thesis Love & Rage: The New Faces of Climate Activism was featured in I-D by VICE.
"'I went to the climate strike in September and I met a bunch of these young people,' Betts told i-D. 'I got really inspired.'
Following the history-making protest, the 21-year-old joined weekly meetings for the New York chapters of XR (Extinction Rebellion) Youth and Fridays for Future, two youth-lead global organizations that have been pivotal in bringing attention to the climate crisis. To highlight the importance of the climate justice movement and its young leaders, Betts put together an activist school yearbook, shooting their portraits and talking to them about their concerns and hopes for the future."
