Sustainability Now! | UK Student Sustainability Symposium | The Power of Radio Storytelling | 4-27-26

This week on Sustainability Now!, we bring you something a little different! On Earth Day, April 22nd, your host, Justin Mog, was invited to be the inaugural invited speaker at the University of Kentucky’s annual end-of-year student sustainability symposium. UK Sustainability Interns present the projects they’ve been working on throughout the year; student sustainability awards are presented; and Justin Mog was invited to speak about his experiences with community radio and connect that to his work in driving change for sustainability. Naturally, Justin took this as an opportunity to make some radio magic, by turning the mic on the audience and conducting a little experiment in the power of storytelling for giving us hope in these dark, scary times. Tune in to hear from these inspiring students and staff engaged in driving change for sustainability at the University of Kentucky in Lexington. 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.
