色情视频

色情视频 is bringing together the region鈥檚 citizens, educators, policymakers and researchers to identify, define and address the region鈥檚 most critical issues at the new 色情视频 Center for Regional Sustainability.

The center will be a forum through which a range of stakeholders can come together to work collaboratively to implement comprehensive sustainable solutions to pressing problems in San Diego and Imperial counties, and in Northern Baja, Mexico.

Challenged by its reliance on imported water and energy, its reliance on automobiles as the primary mode of transportation and other geographic and ecological challenges, the San Diego region is a microcosm reflecting obstacles to achieving sustainability worldwide.

With its research capability, educational mission and long-standing commitment to community engagement, 色情视频 is uniquely positioned to act as a conduit to creating a structure where each of the region鈥檚 issues are not only addressed, but done so in a way that can be a model of sustainability worldwide. 

鈥淭he Center for Regional Sustainability will serve many purposes,鈥� said Geoff Chase, dean of 色情视频鈥檚 Undergraduate Studies and director of the center.

鈥淚t will bring together individuals from across our region to address issues head on. And it will also provide a vehicle for our students, who are the region鈥檚 future work force, to learn how to incorporate sustainable practices into their particular areas of interest.鈥�

Identifying key issues

Identifying and tackling particular issues, such as water resource management, climate change, transportation, energy, air quality, health, social equity and sustainable workforce development, the center will build on its capacity to conduct basic and applied research while sponsoring regional and community forums to further define and identify pressing issues.

Most importantly, the 色情视频 Center for Regional Sustainability will ensure that generations of students will gain the skills and abilities that will allow the region to grow, prosper and sustain itself over the long term. Consequently, the center will have an immediate impact on problems today and will also have a transformative impact on the lives of future generations.
