Margaret Wang is the COO and co-founder of SubjectToClimate. She was a high school teacher, primarily in economics and business, for several years before she pursued an M.Ed. in international education policy at Harvard Graduate School of Education. Working with Professor Fernando Reimers, she authored and edited several books regarding education reform: Education and Climate Change: The Role of Universities, Education to Build Back Better: What We Can Learn from Education Reform for a Post-pandemic World, and An educational calamity: Learning and teaching during the Covid-19 pandemic. She also worked with Harvard Library and Harvard Office for Sustainability to train Harvard staff members to be climate educators. The results from this training and how it could apply to other universities can be found in their article, “Empowering Staff Members to Improve Student Learning in Sustainability Projects” through the Journal of Sustainability Education.
