Climate change affects all of us, but some of us bear the brunt more than others. Meanwhile, climate efforts often neglect underserved areas or offer aid without meaningful input from impacted communities.
Join us for a powerful, in-person conversation that will explore the many ways that Georgians can--and already are--working to ensure that we all have access to the environmental, economic, and health benefits associated with advancing climate solutions in our state.
When: Tuesday, November 14, 2023 from 6-8:30 p.m.
Reception at 6 p.m.
Event begins at 6:45
Where: Rebekah Hall at Agnes Scott College in Decatur, Ga.
How: FREE, but registration is required
