Jane Lubchenco
Jane Lubchenco is Deputy Director for Climate and Environment appointed by President Biden.


Jane is one of the top leaders in science with a long list of accolades who served in President Obama’s administration, while also being a passionate professor who shows no signs of slowing down in educating and challenging her students.
When we met her, we found her to be a very candid, gracious, encouraging, and beaming grandmother with a swollen heart for children.
Rather than share a personal story, she wished for us to convey the story of our relationship with the ocean and to inspire future generations of earth’s stewards.
