Terry Chapin, the winner of the Volvo Environment Prize 2019, is an ecology professor who has spent decades doing research and field work in the challenging conditions of the Arctic. Climate change is having an impact, and the consequences are far-reaching.
Professor Xuemei Bai, a leading expert and thought leader on urbanization and sustainability, receives the Volvo Environment Prize 2018. More than half of the world’s population lives in cities, and the trend keeps growing at an unprecedented rate. In future we will need drastically different ways of planning, building and governing cities, says Xuemei Bai.
The Volvo Environment Foundation takes great pleasure in awarding its 2010 environment prize to Harold A Mooney.
