First Annual Sustainability Speakers Series! Join us for the first panel discussion in the minor’s annual Sustainability Speakers Series: Preserving Maryland’s Waters.

The Sustainability Studies Minor is proud to present Preserving Maryland’s Waters, the first panel discussion in the minor’s annual Sustainable Speakers Series. 

Marylanders are stewards to three major waterways in the region and the country: the Anacostia River, the Potomac River, and the Chesapeake Bay. These waterways support a vibrant ecosystem, various economic activities, and a deep regional culture. Today, these three bodies of water face diverse challenges, and our decisions on how to manage them will have long-term effects on the sustainability of the entire region. 

Join us to discuss the major challenges to Maryland’s iconic waters as we discuss sustainability issues with experts from three of the region’s top environmental groups, each dedicated to preserving the rivers and the bay that we cherish.
