Sustain
“Sustainability” has become quite the buzz word, evoking images of solar panels, rooftop gardens, and recycling bins. But too rarely do we ask the question: How do we build the world we want to sustain for future generations? From the University of Utah's Sustainability Office comes Sustain, a podcast that highlights environmental justice research and scholarship by the University of Utah community. Podcast host Maria Archibald sits down with U faculty and students to learn how the sustainability movement can build and sustain a world in which environmental integrity, social equity, and economic security prosper. New episodes will be released monthly.
