Amelia Vohs
Climate Program Director

"My fifth grade science teacher showed our class a video about global warming. Before that, I had never heard of the greenhouse effect. Suddenly, I was ten years old and learning that if we failed to make big changes, the planet would be forever altered—in my lifetime. The issue was obvious, but surprisingly, the solution was too. I felt sorrow, but also, hope. I wondered, what were we waiting for? Decades later, I’ve made it my profession to keep asking."

Amelia holds a B.A. in English from Coe College and graduated magna cum laude from Valparaiso University School of Law. Prior to joining MCEA, Amelia worked on water policy and litigated factory farm and RCRA cases for the Hoosier Environmental Council.
