On April 27th, RISE and GreeningRozzie will present a diverse panel of local environmental justice leaders, clean energy activists and health and safety experts. We will learn what we can do locally to fight climate change and environmental racism NOW! Climate change, pollution, and environmental degradation disproportionately impact communities of color. Let us seek to address this injustice.
“We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now.” MLK
