Join communities of color, youth, immigrants, workers and union members to shape a People’s Climate Justice and Just Recovery Platform for San Francisco. We need a plan to recover from the pandemic that will transform our city and set an example of what is possible for other cities around the country.
While San Francisco has adopted a series of ambitious climate goals, including all renewable energy by 2030 and net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, we must ensure that these plans serve the needs of our communities.
As global climate chaos meets our local crisis of wealth disparity, the city is slated to release an updated Climate Action Plan in the coming year. Now is an ideal time to push an immigrant, communities of color and worker-led climate justice, just recovery and just transition agenda in San Francisco.
The goals of this gathering are to bring together workers and community members to learn about climate justice and give feedback, so that we can co-create a vision for a Green New Deal in San Francisco. Please bring any and all of your members who want to learn more about climate justice and share ideas about what a just, green, economy can look like!
Conveners include PODER, Jobs with Justice San Francisco, Bayview Advocates, the Public Bank Coalition, United Educators of San Francisco, American Federation of Teachers 2121, SEIU United Services Workers West, SEIU 1021, SOMCAM, SF Rising, IFPTE Local 21, Reclaim Our Power: Utility Justice Campaign, Youth vs. Apocalypse, unions, environmental organizations and allies.
