Sustainability in Action: Training Experts, Decarbonizing the Grid and Mobilizing Campus and Community Partners
Update: 2025-05-21
Description
What does it take to both talk the talk and walk the walk toward a cleaner energy future for a college and its local community? In this episode of From City to the World, learn how sustainability pedagogy and praxis are alive, well and often working hand in hand at The City College of New York (CCNY). President Vincent Boudreau hosts a conversation with CCNY Sustainability Specialist Jake Weinberger and Katherine Gloede Silverman, assistant director of the Sustainability in the Urban Environment program. Hear about their work, where it intersects and ways it engages with community members, environmental advocates and government initiatives. Additionally, explore how a deep commitment to sustainability — from solar-powered EV chargers for campus and community to energy-efficient heat pumps and climate-adaptive infrastructure — is driving decarbonization across this historic Harlem campus.
