So when I’m able to use my voice, use my platform to speak the truth and have the supporting evidence that is indisputable, that’s all we can do,” she said.
Lindsey reiterated her answer during the pageant Q and A about the importance of research. “Whenever you look up reputable resources and you present that evidence in front of you, you respect science.

"Having Joe Biden really pushing for climate change, wanting to rejoin the Paris Agreement on his first day in office, I’m completely excited.

I’m hoping that we can enact change in other countries as well and to kind of influence them to just make brighter, better steps in order to have a brighter and better future.
