Environmental Justice Evanston (EJE) sees environmental equity as a basic human right, and defines environmental justice as the actions and activism necessary to protect that right. We are committed to highlighting inequities and reducing their disproportionate impacts on the health and quality of life for low income, Black, Indigenous, and all people of color in Evanston.
This event features a 45-minute presentation that covers what scientists know about climate change, explores the boundary of current climate knowledge, details how climate change impacts extreme weather, and offers perspectives on what the future may hold. The presentation is followed by 30 minutes of Q&A and then informal mingling time.
EJE created a step-by-step Playbook to help you solve environmental inequities that affect you.
