Sustainability Now! | Shane Tedder | Sustainability & The New Normal | May 4, 2020 by Forward Radio published on 2020-05-04T03:45:27Z With the pandemic teaching us all the value of slowing down and reconnecting with what truly matters, your host, Justin Mog, is thrilled to finally sit a spell in the virtual space with Shane Tedder, a true brother in arms in the struggle for sustainability. A native Kentuckian from Taylor Co., Shane has served as the University of Kentucky's Sustainability Coordinator since 2009. Together we explore sustainability’s role in our “new normal”; and how we can use this opportunity to respond and adapt not only to the pandemic, but to climate change, economic disparity, access to healthcare, and other challenges to sustainability.
