Communities, Climate, Equity and Policy

Features a conversation with Sarita Turner, Vice President for US Programs, Institute for Sustainable Communities, and Domingo Garcia, National President of the League of United Latin American Citizens and former Texas State Representative.

Communities of color, front-line communities, recent immigrants, and low-income neighborhoods are disproportionately impacted by climate but often left out of solutions and strategy. How can city and county leaders be more intentional in centering their climate action and solutions on equity? What are some strategies they can use to dismantle the structural bias in our civic, business, and social systems to ensure that communities of color are leading in climate solutions and repairing the historic disinvestment that has led them to be more vulnerable? Join us as we discuss the ways.
