Fifth annual Kelch Lecture to be held Wednesday
Written by Jessica Smith, Posted in Events, Living
The fifth annual Kelch Lecture will present the “Father of Environmental Justice,” Dr. Robert D. Bullard.
Bullard has documented that healthy places and healthy people are highly correlated. Bullard believes that a zip code is the most important indicator of an individual’s health and that reducing environmental disparities should be a national priority. His lecture, “Building Just and Sustainable Communities for All: Why Sustainability Matters,” will take place in the Walk Auditorium in Ritter Hall on Wednesday from 6-7:30 p.m. Registration is required and a book signing will follow the event.
