It has been three years since I arrived at the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, and the School community continues to inspire me. Each day I am impressed by the talent and range of expertise of our faculty and students,

the deep commitment of our staff, and the truly global impact of our network of alumni

working in every corner of the planet.

I am also continually grateful for the engagement and generosity of our network of

supporters, which allows us to pursue the aspirations laid out in our strategic plan.

This year, the thoughtfulness and dedication of our alumni and friends resulted in one of

the most exciting and successful years in the School’s history, with important investments

in many of our new initiatives. Your generosity supports the Yale Environmental Dialogue,

an ambitious F&ES initiative that has already infused fresh thinking and innovative ideas

into the national conversation about sustainability — and even published a new book,

“A Better Planet: Forty Big Ideas for a Sustainable Future.” It will fund a new visiting

professorship in climate change that will bring to campus outside perspectives on this

critical issue. It will enable us to host a major conference this fall on environmental

justice, a vastly important field that touches on every issue we address. It will also help

us strengthen our commitment to career development for our students and alumni, and

strategic communications for the School.

All of these initiatives are helping us build on our existing strengths while at

the same time allowing us to grow and evolve in the face of increasingly complex

environmental challenges.

I am excited by the momentum we are building, and I appreciate the many ways you

are helping us to achieve these goals.

2019 ANNUAL REPORT 3

Page 3: I MPACTS - Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies · 2019. 12. 4. · of how climate change will likely affect agricultural production in the future. The influential paper,

Can marshland keep up with rising seas?One of the consequences of sea level

rise in many coastal locations will be the

inland migration of salt marsh. That is, of

course, if these marshes are able to move

fast enough to keep up with encroaching

waters. In an ongoing research project on

the Connecticut shoreline, senior lecturer

and research scientist Shimon Anisfeld

is studying marshland migration using

a novel methodology that analyzes

for microscopic fossils in the layers of

sediment, which enables scientists to

identify marsh migration that might not be

evident through aerial photography. And,

working with Craig Brodersen, associate

professor of plant physiological ecology at

F&ES, Anisfeld is also evaluating how tree

damage caused by major storms influences

this wetland migration.

Seminal climate research continues to resonateTwenty-five years ago, a team of researchers

led by Robert Mendelsohn, the Edwin

Weyerhaeuser Davis Professor of Forest

Policy and Professor of Economics at F&ES,

undertook the first major assessment

of how climate change will likely affect

agricultural production in the future.

The influential paper, which was co-

authored by Nobel Prize-winning Yale

economist William Nordhaus, provided

early evidence that the potential impacts

of climate change would vary from region

to region, with warmer regions paying

the biggest price. Those findings continue

to influence climate research: The paper

earned the 2019 Publication of Enduring

Quality Award from the Association of

Environmental and Resource Economists.

The nexus of energy and povertyGenerating the energy needed to lift

billions out of poverty doesn’t have

to mean a steep rise in global carbon

emissions. In an ongoing research

project, Narasimha Rao has found

that improving living standards across

the developing world can be done in

a sustainable way. Rao, an assistant

professor of energy systems analysis at

F&ES, leads the innovative Decent Living

Energy project, which gathers data on

the energy required for essentials like

access to clean water and healthy food,

powering household appliances, public

transportation, and education.

Benign by designUnderstanding the ins and outs of

chemistry can be a challenge for anyone,

and members of the U.S. Congress are

no exception. The House Science, Space,

and Technology Subcommittee on

Research and Technology recently held a

hearing, “Benign by Design: Innovations

in Sustainable Chemistry,” in

preparation for a vote on the bipartisan

Sustainable Chemistry Research and

Development Act. The group convened

a panel of expert witnesses for the

hearing, including Julie Zimmerman,

professor of green engineering and

deputy director of the Center for Green

Chemistry and Green Engineering at

Yale, who stressed the importance of

raising awareness, proper training, and

research funding for sustainability in the

chemical industry.

Professors Michelle Bell, Mark Bradford, and Karen Seto this year appeared on Clarivate Analytics annual list of “highly cited researchers,” which ranks

STUDENT I M PAC TS

The untold costs of road construction in AfricaLike many developing countries, Uganda

is investing in large infrastructure

projects. However, road construction

projects have substantial social and

scological implications for local

communities. Working with the

Wildlife Conservation Society and the

Uganda National Roads Authority,

Paul Hatanga ’20 M.E.M. is studying

these impacts through the use of camera

traps, mapping and GIS tools, and

interviews with government, contractors

and local citizens — producing results

that he hopes will promote responsible

investment in infrastructure that

protects biodiversity.

The future of water in the HimalayasBhutan, one of the few carbon-

negative countries in the world,

is so environmentally conscious,

land conservation is written into its

constitution. But the small Himalayan

nation, which neighbors world powers

India and China, remains at risk from

climate change due in large part to its

reliance on hydropower. Emma Johnson

’20 M.E.M. spent a month traveling

across Bhutan this summer as a student

fellow with The Pulitzer Center, reporting

on how the rural country is developing

clean energy solutions in the face of rising

temperatures and erratic weather.

Paul Hatanga stands alongside a new road in western Uganda this summer.

Yale-Myers Forest provides a laboratory for Nathalie Sommer’s research on “animal personality,” an animal’s consistent behavior across contexts.

Getting to know an insect’s ‘personality’One’s behavior has a profound effect

on everything around them — and the

same rings true for animals, argues Ph.D.

candidate Nathalie Sommer ’19 M.E.Sc.

Her research focuses on “animal personality”

— an animal’s consistent behavior across

contexts — and how variation of individual

personalities within a population can

mediate ecological processes, particularly

predator-prey interactions and food

web structure. Working with Oswald

Schmitz, Oastler Professor of Population

and Community Ecology, Sommer is

conducting field experiments, behavioral

and physiological measurements, and

ecological stoichiometry on grasshopper and

spider interactions at Yale-Myers Forest.

Her research was recently honored by the

National Science Foundation Graduate

Research Fellowship Program.

36 F&ES students participated in the 2018 United Nations Climate

Change Conference, COP24, in Katowice, Poland

87F&ES students have completed fellowships

through the Environmental Defense Fund’s Climate

Corps Fellow program since 2008, including eight in

summer 2019

7F&ES students completed summer

internships in Rwanda in summer 2019, where F&ES has built new partnerships

in the past year

Energy efficient housing: To retrofit or to rebuild?The quantity and carbon intensity of

household energy consumption makes

up 20 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas

emissions. Strategies to reduce these

emissions include improved housing

and energy conversions, and changes

to consumer behavior. Peter Berrill,

a doctoral student at F&ES who studies

the lifecycle impacts of energy production

and consumption, recently examined

the factors and trends driving household

energy decisions. His research will help

answer critical questions, including

whether future mitigation efforts should

focus more on retrofitting current

housing stocks or replacing older stock

with new housing.

for the U.S. Forest Service

Three alumni — Dawn Lippert ’06 B.A., ’07 M.E.M.,

Shyla Raghav ’09 M.E.M., and Adrien Salazar ’17 M.E.M.

— were named to the

2019 Grist 50, a list of young leaders

doing ‘game-changing’ sustainability work

75%of F&ES students

are currently working with an

alumni mentor

Keeping up with the trees in our citiesUrban natural areas are essential to

ecosystem resiliency and local public

health, and are proven to help combat

climate change. These areas, however, are

often underutilized and municipalities

lack the resources for proper management,

according to a landmark report produced

by F&ES, The Trust for Public Land, and

The Natural Areas Conservancy, a leading

New York non-profit founded by

Sarah Charlop-Powers ’09 M.E.M. and

Bram Gunther ’91 M.E.M. The report,

co-authored by Ph.D. candidate Clara

Pregitzer and professor Mark Bradford,

a professor of soils and ecosystem ecology

at F&ES, is the first phase of a project that

will now bring teams from 10 U.S. cities

together to develop a path toward more

efficient management.

Infusing sustainability principles in the beverage industryAs senior manager of environmental

sustainability for Brown-Forman, Suzette

Carty ’04 M.E.M. is helping to drive change

in one of the nation’s largest spirits and wine

companies. She has helped broker a wind

power-purchase agreement that will help the

company meet its greenhouse gas targets,

and has worked to engage employees on

issues related to sustainability and recycling.

This year, she was named a First Mover

Fellow by the Aspen Institute for Business

& Society Program, which honors leaders

who create environmental and social change

within their companies. She’s also shared

her time and expertise with F&ES over

the past several years, supporting the Yale

Environmental Sustainability Summit and

and mentoring students.

Financing conservation in Appalachia The Nature Conservancy (TNC) recently

unveiled a conservation initiative that uses

private investment to protect more than

253,000 acres of Appalachian forest. The

initiative protects a massive store of carbon

dioxide and preserves a critical climate

migration corridor for species that will have

to shift to cooler climates. The architect of the

plan was Tom Hodgman ’09 M.F./M.B.A., a

senior director in TNC’s NatureVest division.

“This is a way to take our work to new scale,”

Hodgman says. “All across the Conservancy,

we’ve done great forest conservation projects.

We’ve done great carbon projects for the

voluntary and California markets. We’ve built

those muscles and can demonstrate that we

know how to put these deals together. The

Cumberland Forest Project pulls all of this

work together into a project you can finance;

it pulls this work into an investment.”

Working with Microsoft’s “AI for Good” program,

SilviaTerra, a company founded by Zach Parisa ’09 M.F.S., has

created the first high-resolution inventory for all U.S. forests

Taking stock of our natural resourcesWhile many experts study how the

harnessing of natural resources impacts the

environment, others are more concerned

with just how many of these natural

resources Earth has left. Nedal Nassar

’11 M.E.Sc., ’14 M.Phil., ’15 Ph.D. leads

the Materials Flow Analysis Section at the

Natural Minerals Information Center of

the U.S. Geological Survey, which analyzes

the stocks and flows of non-fuel mineral

commodities to help policymakers and

federal agencies understand the potential

implications for economic development and

national security. Nassar recently received

the Presidential Early Career Award for

Scientists and Engineers, the highest honor

the U.S. government gives to promising

scientists and engineers.

URI and partners keep New Haven greenThe Elm City lives up to its nickname, with

an abundance of street trees thanks to the

country’s first public tree-planting program

developed in the early 20th century. The

Urban Resources Initiative (URI) carries

on that legacy today, planting thousands

of trees and cleaning up greenspaces

across New Haven with help from the Yale

community and nearly 60 local community

groups. In 2011, URI formalized a

partnership with EMERGE, a program

that provides employment for formerly

incarcerated adults, making a meaningful

difference in the community. Of the 274

participants enrolled in EMERGE since its

inception, 75 percent of them have served

more than six years in prison. Only 14

percent of those participants have returned

to prison; 63 percent have gone on to

further employment or education.

Delivering Yale expertise to professionals worldwideTwo centers based at F&ES introduced

one-year online certificate programs

that allow emerging professionals in

countries across the world to access

Yale’s faculty, training materials,

and networks. In “Tropical Forest

Landscapes: Conservation, Restoration

and Sustainable Use,” developed by the

Environmental Leadership & Training

Initiative (ELTI), participants are learning

to design, implement, and monitor

effective forest conservation and restoration

initiatives. The second course, “Financing

and Deploying Clean Energy,” which was

developed by the Yale Center for Business

and the Environment, a collaboration with

the Yale School of Management, aims to

accelerate the uptake of clean energy by

building workforce capacity in the areas of

policy, finance, and technology.

A new online certificate program developed by the Environmental Leadership & Training Initiative brings Yale expertise to practitioners in 29 countries.

Classes combine for ‘land use dialogues’ across AfricaSixty local representatives from

agriculture, business, and government

participated in a weeklong Land Use

Dialogue (LUD) in Ifakara, Tanzania,

hosted by The Forests Dialogue (TFD)

earlier this year. Bethany Linton ’19

M.E.Sc., Paul Hatanga ’20 M.E.M. and

Luca Guadagno ’21 M.E.Sc. worked

with local stakeholders to design

implementable and inclusive policy

and management plans that promote

efficient land use and development of

resources. TFD hosted three additional

LUD programs in Africa in the past

year (see map), and plans to host one

more in Uganda.

The Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies continues to make great strides toward achieving the ambitious goals identified in its 2017 Strategic Plan.

STRATEGIC PLAN

Building Momentum

Build on historic strengths through research, training, programs, and initiatives

Enhancing the National Dialogue

This year, the School launched a series of national

events through the Yale Environmental Dialogue

(YED), which aims to transform the

national discussion on environmental

policy. In February, the YED

convened more than 100 leaders

from across many sectors to

share their solutions to complex

environmental challenges.

The ideas that emerged are

featured in a new book, “A Better

Planet: 40 Big Ideas for a Sustainable

Future,” published by the Yale University Press.

More events will be held in cities across the U.S.,

including this fall in New York and Washington.

Develop areas of emerging strength

Commitment to Environmental Justice

Thanks to the generosity of Graciela Chichilnisky,

an F&ES fund has been established to support

the expansion of research, teaching, and outreach

in global environmental justice — including an

endowment for a conference to be held on campus

this fall. The fund honors Natasha Chichilnisky-

Heal, whose doctoral research at Yale focused on the

environmental justice issues related to natural resource

extraction in the developing world.

An Alaska Case Study

A new “Perspectives” course was developed to allow

students to dive into the complexity of a real-world

environmental challenge. The course, taught by F&ES

Professor Julie Zimmerman, will steer students through

the case of the Bristol Bay Pebble Mine in Alaska, where

a plan for a large-scale mining operation stands to

threaten the local watershed. Presented with a variety

of viewpoints from F&ES faculty and guest experts,

students will pull the case apart through open discussion,

creating a shared understanding of the importance of

interdisciplinary approaches in managing thorny issues.

Enhance the spirit of community at F&ES, and strengthen connections across the Yale campus

Organized and co-hosted campus-wide Yale Climate Day

Established OneF&ES, a group of staff and faculty tasked with developing programs and events that bring the F&ES community closer together

Hosted regional events, including F&ESinDC, which linked 100 F&ES students with alumni mentors and potential employers

Leveraging the F&ES Network

The School’s network of more than 5,000 living

alumni stays connected through regional events and

reunions, allowing individuals working across the

world to provide mentorship and career support to

fellow alumni and current F&ES students. Last year,

F&ES introduced another tool, Alumnifire, that

allows F&ES graduates to network with fellow alumni.

The online program already has 1,272 users in

43 countries. More than 100 connections have been

formed on the platform between people seeking and

offering everything from career advice to collaboration

on a work project, and seeking and finding employment

from 370 posted jobs.

Create reliable resources, including funding and space, to support existing and new work

Help us continue the momentum

Raised record amounts in new gifts and pledges, allowing the School to address priorities articulated in the Strategic Plan, including an emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration, environmental justice, and strategic communications

Expanded physical space to support centers, programs, and research fellows

Some of our goals in the near future:

Develop resources for new programs and professorships: • urban systems and environmental justice • environmental data • environmental leadership • climate change mitigation, communication, and policy

Increase scholarship support for master’s students of all backgrounds

Raise funds to create new professorships and boost faculty recruitment for inclusive excellence

Expand the doctoral program to broaden our research impact and scholarly influence

Promoting Community and Inclusion

An expanded F&ES Office of Community and Inclusion

has developed new programming and events promoting

conversations that honor diverse perspectives and promote

an inclusive culture and further enmeshed these principles

in the orientation process for all incoming students. In

the spring, Assistant Dean Thomas Easley debuted a

podcast series, Heartwood, which explores issues at the

intersection of diversity and the environment.

Diversify our faculty, student body, and staff to better address the complex challenges of the future

Refined recruitment and hiring processes, such as a “target of opportunity” search for faculty, and increased diversity of staff, including in positions of leadership

Added regular trainings — led by the School’s new Office of Community and Inclusion — on diversity, implicit bias, and cultural competence

Launched former Pinchot Fellow Michael Mendez into faculty position at the University of California, Irvine

Strengthened student recruitment strategies
