We’re hosting SoGES Community Coffee Hours/Lunches to create space for conversation and networking among members of our SoGES community (anyone new or SoGES-curious is welcome too). We’ll start with some lightly facilitated discussion on a timely topic related to sustainability to spark discussion, followed by time to socialize, catch up, and meet others. Drop in or out any time during the hour.

Our first coffee will be focused on the general landscape of U.S. immigration enforcement, mass detention, and its wide-ranging impacts on both human and environmental health. Josh Sbicca will lead the first portion by covering his current work on the environmental justice implications of rapidly expanding immigrant detention.
