The effects of climate change are local, especially its impact on human health—
dependent upon geography, weather, but also community resources and the local consequences of inequality and racism.
Join us to discuss what Central PA municipalities and legislators are doing to
deal with the climate crisis.
Speakers
Thomas Au, Clean Air Board
Justina Wasicek, Clean Air Board
Rob Altenburg, Sr. Director for Energy and Climate of PennFuture Energy Center
How did a family walk on the beach in 1987 turn into a cleanup that started a movement? How does examination of raked-up beach debris inform us of broader environmental issues that affect us, whether or not we live near a beach? How can we safeguard our shores for future generations? Why does the health of our oceans matter to our daily lives?
Kyle Gronostajski, Executive Director of Alliance for a Living Ocean, will talk about plastic pollution locally and beyond. His presentation will also touch on the various ways to eliminate single use plastics from daily life in hopes of finding less of them in the marine environment.
Today I was on campus at the Quaker Senior Community called the Hickman (West Chester, PA). This note is to share how uplifting & motivating it was to see the children from W.C. Friends School (our neighbor), leading our staff and residents into intergenerational Witness for Climate on the street today. I’d love to see photos of other Friends participating in this Global Movement today and in the coming week!
