This year we were fortunate enough to have 2 Jefferson Science Fellows. Professor Mark Mascal visited the embassy to support electric vehicle efforts as we work to meet our goal to be purchasing 100% EVs by 2027 for our agency fleet!

.@ClimateEnvoy: To meet the challenge, at the Leaders’ Summit in April, the United States announced an ambitious target of reducing our emissions by 50-52 percent by 2030. We do all this knowing full well that no country and no continent alone can solve the climate crisis.
