Hello,

  Some of you are members of the Sustainability Committee and/or the ad hoc
AS committee on Sustainability, Environment and Climate Crisis (SECC) and
have heard all of this before. If not, please consider participating in the
Academic Sustainability Retreat (flyer attached), encourage your students
to participate in the sustainability research poster session, and let me
know if you'd like to be involved in reviewing the evolving list of
sustainability courses/programs (first draft for spring attached) and//or
the sustainability literacy assessment.

Be well,
Juliann

sign up - *encourage your grad students to participate*
(2)  TO DO: See review first generation of sustainability courses based on
UN SDG goals *for spring quarter* (attached). Look at courses in your
department/program/college and let me know if you consider them to be
sustainability courses. Are there any courses offered this quarter that
should be included?
(3) COMING SOON: We are currently organizing 200+ questions in terms of the
triple bottom line (environment/science, social/EJ, and economics/finance)
categories. I will circulate subsets of these questions for review pursuant
to a first draft of a sustainability literacy survey.
=> Meeting tomorrow (4/12) at 1 PM if you'd like to discuss. Join us here
<https://ucr.zoom.us/j/95965281418>.

  Any questions? You know where to find me.

Best wishes,
Juliann
