VPIRG is pleased to introduce—with our partners in the #ActOnClimateVT coalition—the Climate Action Works Webinar Series! The first installment will take place on Wednesday, March 10 at 6:30pm, with special guest Kiah Morris, Movement Politics Director at Rights and Democracy (RAD).
Come hear Morris in conversation with Ben Edgerly Walsh, Climate and Energy Program Director here at VPIRG. They will discuss what equity means in the context of the climate movement, and how we can and must center the needs of BIPOC Vermonters and other historically marginalized people so that Vermont can ensure our transition to a clean energy economy works to uplift all Vermonters and create just outcomes.
Each installment of the Climate Action Works Webinar Series will highlight a different aspect of the work currently underway by the Climate Council. The Council is developing a plan for meeting the polution reduction mandates required by the Global Warming Solutions Act, which became law last fall. Learn more about the Climate Council here.
Please reach out if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Elijah Kushen
Communications Coordinator, VPIRG
