On this edition of ST, we speak with Corey Williams, the executive director of the nonprofit Sustainable Tulsa, which is driven by (as noted at its website) these core principles: "A thriving society, responsible economic growth, and environmental stewardship...[which] are the mutually reinforcing pillars of sustainability." Ms. Williams tells us about Sustainable Tulsa's next First Thursday presentation, which is a free event happening tomorrow (the 6th) at the TCC Center for Creativity (near 10th and Boston in downtown Tulsa). This gathering will feature a panel discussion with Mayor Bynum's Leadership Team -- including former Tulsa Mayor Kathy Taylor, James Wagner, Nick Doctor, and Dawn Warrick -- who will be talking about the City of Tulsa's current and future goals regarding planning, economic development, and sustainability.
