TECH FOCUS:SUSTAINABLE
ENERGY TECHNOLOGY
Airbus VP Amanda Simpson, a transgender woman and LGBT advocate, is
shown here delivering remarks at AeroTech 2022 in Pasadena.
Currently in the exploration stage, Airbus hopes to
have a new type of aircraft in flight by 2035, and is
working alongside the rest of industry to reduce
emissions and create more sustainable practices that
will help curb air pollution.
" We know this is an impressive schedule, but to
satisfy what we see as a critical need for our planet,
we have to start working on this right now. And I'm
hoping that all of you will join that endeavor to start
working on sustainability. It has to be what we do, "
Simpson said during her address.
She's vocal about her thoughts on industry
inclusivity, and the need for diverse perspectives to
advance technology.
UPDATE
Professionally, she's passionate
about bringing sustainability to
the forefront of the aerospace
industry. The industry is more
open to this push for
sustainability now than ever
before, and Simpson attributes
that shift in thinking to a number
of factors, not least of which is
an increasingly diverse, more
socially-conscious group of
professionals driving progress.
" Because of these voices,
these more diverse opinions,
they're bringing social
responsibilities to the forefront,
and we're seeing this increased
focus on sustainability. This is
only going to grow because as
we in the aerospace industry
start talking about it, it's
resonating with the general
public, " she said. " They want to
see this. They want to slow
down the rate at which the
temperatures are rising, the
oceans are rising, the impacts of
severe storms, wildfires, floods,
famine, and all these things that
come from it. And sometimes in
aerospace where as engineers
we want to design and we want
to do something that's really
neat and cool. But we're
learning to become citizens of
the planet at the same time, so I
