It all began with an idea to host an event featuring a variety of speakers presenting on their work, experiences, and vision for a more sustainable future. The Inter-Sustainability Council and the Student Sustainability Collective organized the first Green Talks, a TED-talk style event in 2016 during UC San Diego's Celebration of Earth Month aimed to engage and promote the importance of being environmentally conscious through one’s actions. The tradition has continued, even virtually through the pandemic. This April, we celebrated being able to host this signature event once again in person. Six speakers presented 15 minutes each followed by a speaker panel Q&A session.
