Just Sustainability: Hope for the Commons – Seattle, WA

Seattle University’s Center for Environmental Justice and Sustainability holds its inaugural conference Just Sustainability: Hope for the Commons on August 7-9, 2014. The conference will “examine sustainability topics such as water, energy, food systems, climate change, biodiversity conservation, law and policy, and education through the lens of environmental justice, as well as papers that engage with the ethics, challenges and opportunities presented by the transition to a sustainable society. We particularly encourage papers from Jesuit institutions, as we hope to begin to build an environmental justice and sustainability network of individuals, centers, and university departments throughout the Jesuit world. im
