Mark your calendar for Tuesday March 17th!   WLCV, Making Milwaukee Green Coalition, Clean Wisconsin, Campaign Against Violence and other organizations have teamed up to bring Nia Robinson, the Director of Environmental Justice and Climate Change Initiative at Redefining Progress, to Milwaukee's Urban Ecology Center!  Ms. Robinson will share findings from the report "A Climate of Change: African Americans, Global Warming and A Just Climate Policy for the U.S."

"A Climate of Change: African Americans, Global Warming and A Just Climate Policy"

Global warming is not an environmental issue alone, and Ms. Robinson will bring to the forefront how social justice and human rights are inextricably linked to climate change.  The study details how negative social and economic effects of climate change disproportionately effect marginalized communities.  Ms. Robinson will also discuss how to create policy solutions that work to combat climate change and social inequality while providing the best overall policy for the environment and the economy.

This is a great opportunity to hear from one of the leaders in the field of Environmental Justice and Climate Change!  Please join us for what will prove to be a fresh take on the way we look at climate change.  Please RSVP.
