SHEFFIELD â Isabella Cardinali Kemp is passionate about local food, composting and recycling. Anything that makes the Earth cleaner.
Now, the Mount Everett Regional High School senior is âsuper excitedâ to spread her passion in the larger community with a virtual series of six speakers to expand on problems and household solutions for water-quality declines, the importance of local food and âthe interconnectivity of soil.â
Kemp, 18, had this idea, and she and Cecelia Caldwell, 17, got cracking during the coronavirus pandemic to line up six influential speakers for the free âSustainable Speaker Series â Our Relationship to Land and Water: Conversations with Local and National Sustainability Leaders,â which begins at 5:30 p.m. Friday with a talk about sustainable systems on college campuses by Ezra Small, the campus sustainability manager at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, and a Mount Everett alumnus.

A pilot meal swipe sharing program is available this semester for University of Wyoming students experiencing food insecurity. Meals will be available at Washakie Dining Center.
The UW Food Security Taskforce and the Sustainability Coalition are collaborating on the pilot program, which is made possible by the support of the Associated Students of UW’s Special Projects. Hot, fresh and nutritious meals will be offered to UW students. The new program helps support the ongoing efforts to reduce food insecurity at UW.
Once a student is approved for the program, shared meal swipes are loaded directly onto the student’s WyoOne ID card. Swipes are dispersed on a rolling basis throughout the academic year. Students are free to use swipes as needed, and they can apply for the program more than once.
