The environment is personal. Environmental studies does not exist only in a theoretical or academic space; it is intertwined into the lives of every person on this planet. At Cura Terra, the personal forms the beating heart of our work. We are an undergraduate journal founded on values of justice and equity, putting people at the center of the world’s most pressing environmental issues.

Cura Terra is designed to be both interdisciplinary and intersectional, because we believe that there is no single perspective that can adequately capture the totality of any environmental issue. To this end, we strive to demystify academia and to be accessible to academics and students alike; our content balances rigorous academic research with insightful journalistic and creative content.

Above all, Cura Terra exists to galvanize action. Through asking difficult questions of our readers, we balance the urgency of the present with hope for the future, underlining the vital role we each must play moving forward.
