Meet Dylan Rothenberg: The American PhD Student Cultivating Sustainable Tea Futures

While most grad students are buried in textbooks, 28-year-old Dylan Rothenberg is digging deeper—literally. 💼🔍 The U.S. native is pursuing a Tea Science PhD in Guangzhou, analyzing soil microbes in organic tea plantations across the Chinese mainland. His mission? To brew up eco-friendly farming practices that could revolutionize tea production worldwide.

🌿 \"Healthy soil means healthier tea,\" says Dylan, who combines his environmental activism with lab work. His research focuses on boosting soil sustainability to create climate-resilient tea crops—a crucial innovation as extreme weather challenges growers.

From Lab to Vlog: Spilling the Tea Globally ☕📱

When he’s not playing plant detective (think Sherlock Holmes with a pH meter 🔎), Dylan runs a social media empire explaining Chinese tea culture to global audiences. His videos—watched by thousands—break down everything from oolong antioxidants to the art of tea ceremony, \"bridging cultures one cup at a time.\"

🎥 Why it matters: As climate change reshapes agriculture, Dylan’s work offers a template for sustainable farming—with tea leaves as his test subjects. Meanwhile, his viral content is giving Gen Z worldwide a taste of China’s 4,000-year-old tea legacy.
