Second year Economics Undergraduate at the Unversity of Bath Starting my degree I was disappointed to find that the environment is still marginalised and considered as an afterthought in traditional Economics, I discovered Donut Economics and fully related to Kate's experience. It's disappointing that the Economics being taught today still hasn't caught up to the 21st century, but the Donut Economics movement is really encouraging and has remotivated my interest in Economics.
