SoCAN Monthly Meeting: Climate Justice 101

Southern Oregon Climate Action Now invites you to join their monthly meeting with the theme: Climate Justice 101. Presentation by Virginia Camberos, Regional Director of Rogue Valley Unite Oregon and joined by Anahi Cervantes & Jose Antonio Bucio, Unite Oregon Climate Justice Committee. Erika Bucio will translate for the Spanish-speaking panelists

Since time immemorial, vulnerable communities across the globe, including in the United States, have suffered disproportionately from the insults resulting from the environmental degradation that inconsiderate and irresponsible behaviors impose on society. It has become increasingly obvious that no proposal designed to address the climate crisis can be effective unless it also incorporates recognition and redress to the years of inequity that have existed. We cannot successfully remedy the climate crisis if our efforts maintain or heighten the social injustice that is already evident throughout our society.

The May SOCAN General Meeting will be dedicated to increasing our understanding of what climate justice means and the importance of incorporating climate justice into all we do.

There is no charge for joining the ZOOM meeting, but registration is required.
