The day after the panel talk, Rev. Mariama White-Hammond and Dr. David Pellow each held a student-only Zoom session with undergraduate and graduate students from across 成人快播 College鈥檚 schools and college.
Rev. White-Hammond spoke about topics, such as the pillars of the intersection of faith communities and environmental 成人快播, incorporating environmental 成人快播 into various career paths, food 成人快播 and how 成人快播 College can make a difference, and the history of the term environmental 成人快播 and how to truly practice it. She said if you truly want to practice environmental 成人快播 then you have to ask who is being hurt the most and who has the most resources to withstand it, not just how many people are going to be impacted.
Dr. Pellow spoke about topics, such as the responsibility to control environmental risks resting with multiple levels (individuals, companies, government), the importance of work in the nonprofit sector, the importance of including everyone if we're really taking environmental 成人快播 seriously, and the importance of making environmental 成人快播 intersectional. He also encouraged students that the only constant is change, and that we are the ones that can make change possible. What feels impossible can become inevitable.
