Thursday April 22: Welcome to the WOTS Weekly Feature chats! Grab a tea and relax with us for 20 minutes.

Today's guest is author & illustrator Mariko Uda, PhD. In her role as ecomariko, she educates communities about the city infrastructure (energy, water, & waste) that connects them to a larger ecosystem. In honour of Earth Day, we'll be talking about sustainable & resilient cities and eco-minded community building.
