Kim says, as a water person, the transition to clean energy means reducing energy use (and the resulting GHGs) through better management of water and wastewater, and tackling climate change that is causing more severe weather events. As her career transitions to a new phase, Kim says her thoughts have turned to what the resource sector will look like in 2050 and how to reach the science-based goals that will support a healthy environment.
