I am a geologist as background, but I am acting like an environmental chemist. I am trying to quantify the environmental impact of oil and gas offshore production on the Danish North Sea.
I believe that encouraging people about our energy transition is fundamental. It is possible to keep using oil - which we still need for pharma, fuels, chemicals, and plastics - but it's all about HOW we want to do it. And for sure, we want to make it as clean as possible! Without polluting the sea and affecting the marine organisms!
I have always been attracted by the hidden science behind everyday life, so it was spontaneous for me to choose geology as my major for my Bachelor's and Master's degrees so I could understand where materials were made from. Then, I realized that my competencies could be useful in understanding the current environmental issues of our society (like oil and gas production).
