I enjoyed participating in a great conversation this week on Sustainability at Work, hosted by the Wayne State University Office of Economic Development and Office of Campus Sustainability. I gave a short “teaching talk” on why and how communication was central to how different kinds of organizations and workers engage in environmental sustainability, and afterward joined a great panel of industry representatives and scholars talking about opportunities for students to get engaged.
Last semester, two student teams in my Communication Studies capstone class developed a series of short animation videos highlighting the engineering and biomedical research at the NIH-funded Center for Leadership in Environmental Awareness and Research (CLEAR) Superfund Research Program to monitor, assess and remediate the health impacts of volatile organic chemicals (VOCs).
This is the first of those videos, describing Project 1, led by Dr. Glen Hood (Dept. of Biological Sciences).
