Joseph Steidle is an Undergraduate Political Science student at West Chester University of Pennsylvania, with a concentration in Public Policy. He has an interest in environmental policy around in the US and around the world and is always looking for ways to educate people about climate change, the policies and regulations protecting our environment, and new and exciting ways for people to get involved. 

Along with Political Science, Joseph is currently working towards a degree in Music, with minors in Spanish and Criminal Justice. He is an active musician at West Chester University performing with various student ensembles, is a founder of the WCU Model UN, and is a member of the Student Government Association where he is working to promote sustainability initiatives at the university.

Outside of his academics, Joseph is an Eagle Scout and remains an active member of his Boy Scout Troop, helping to lead and teach the next generation of Boy Scouts as an adult leader. Having been a Boy Scout since entering the program in first grade, he attributes these early outdoor experiences and the numerous conservation projects he participated in to fostering his love of the environment and his desire to protect it so that future generations can enjoy it the same way he did.
