Sustainability Now! | Christopher Caldwell | Menominee Nation | 8-3-26

This week on Sustainability Now!, we bring you highlights from the Closing Keynote at last year's conference of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) in Minneapolis. On October 24, 2025, leaders in campus sustainability heard from Christopher M. Caldwell, President of the College of Menominee Nation. Christopher has been a lifelong advocate for Indigenous sustainability thinking, with a career spanning sustainable forestry, higher education, and Tribal leadership. His address focused on Menominee history, connection to land, and sustainable forestry. Then he touches on their higher education and indigenous approaches to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals through the Sustainable Development Institute of the College of Menominee Nation in Keshina, WI. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW! Sustainability Now! is hosted by Dr. Justin Mog and airs on Forward Radio, 106.5fm, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Monday at 6pm and repeats Tuesdays at 12am and 10am. Find us at https://forwardradio.org
