It’s Earth Day. Amid climate anxiety, fast fashion, and greenwashing, what does sustainability really look like in higher ed and beyond? Who carries the burden of “going green,” and who gets to profit from it? #EarthDay#UADiscourse
We’re backkkk!

Congratulations to the UA winners and participants. We did great🫶
