Today is Native American Heritage Day and we wanted to highlight some significant stories by either Native American authors or about Native American activists. These stories are profound and offer a deeper understanding of the significance of these spaces we live on and the cultures of the Native American people who originally took care of it. Swipe for descriptions of the books as well as the reading list shared by the Urban Sustainability Director’s Network. Have recommendations? Share in the comments!It's inversion season... which means the return of Salt Lake City employees' Air Quality Alerts. This program, which was implemented for the first time early this year under @slcmayor Mendenhall, is designed to bring awareness of mandatory action days to all 3,000 members of Salt Lake City's workforce. For those who are able, teleworking and other lower-emission forms of transportation are strongly encouraged. Alerts also provide information on how to protect employees who work outside. Learn more at the link in our bio.Friendly holiday reminder: our waste and recycling services will be delayed one day following Thanksgiving. If your pick up is scheduled for Thursday, we will collect on Friday for this week. And if your collection date is normally Friday, we will be there on Saturday this week.
