I really appreciate everyone’s advice here. It has given me a lot to think about as we start to navigate the next few years and figure things out. Also wanted to mention the type of company my son dreams about working for called Too Good to Go. They are based in Copenhagen but have offices in many other places, including France and the US. We use the app frequently here in LA (including last night) to get food that would otherwise wind up in a landfill. We had a chance to visit their offices in 2024 and my son was really inspired. It’s a combination of tech and sustainability and solving a big problem – the 40% of food that goes to waste in most countries. If anyone here is an engineer focused on sustainability issues, would love to hear about their career path on how they got there.
