Inspiring.

Awareness of pressing environmental issues is growing. Green careers are more important and urgent than ever.

Simultaneously, those in the field are working to make this line of work fully equitable for everyone, something that nature and science already is.

You are invited to hear the individual narratives of panelists representing the Black, Indigenous, and Communities of Color across Tennessee who work in an environmental career.

If you are a student finding your path, or already have an interest in an environmental career, you'll want to be here for this.
