Tan Chan (C'15) explored how sustainability is embraced and advanced by Philadephia's different cultural communities, through inside looks at: 1) green stormwater infrastructure and environmental curricula at the Nebinger School; 2) Tertulias Herb Garden, a medicinal community garden rooted in Puerto Rican herbal tradition, located in West Kensington; and 3) Feed the Barrel, a recycling program serving South Philadelphia’s Indonesia community that transforms used cooking oil into compost and biofuel.
