"How &how far are discourses & practices around environment & health...being reconfigured anthropocenically–for instance as ideas of epidemic as fall & disease control as progress are joined by notions of planetary health, one health, & multi-species socio-ecologies of zoonosis?"

Sociologists! My semester is over which means it's time for me to start offering daily #asa18 #asa2018 tips for Philly food and drink and general awesomeness. What do you want to know? @ASAnews
Day 1: if u need a cheesesteak, don't go to a tourist trap for a cheesesteak. Head further south past cheesesteak vegas to @mikesbbq_215 for a smoked brisket cheesesteak. Or go in the other direction to @StockyardPhilly. Or a roast pork from @TommyDinics at reading terminal.
Day 2: let's get fancier than cheesesteaks. Plan soon/now about scoring a weekend reservation at Philly's best classy establishments: @vernickphilly, @LaurelEPX, @townsendphilly, @zahavrestaurant (get the lamb mesibah), @vetricucinaphl or @vedgerestaurant
