Ensuring a Just Transition in All Aspects of Climate Action
Wednesday, July 27, 2022 | Virtual | 2:00 PM ET
The devastating effects of climate change represent a significant risk to the health and safety of all, but not all people are equally impacted. A disproportionate share of exposures to environmental pollution and climate change hazards impact communities of color. Law and policy solutions that address the impacts of climate change should apply a just transitions framework to equitably distribute the costs and benefits of climate action. Attend this webinar to learn about these topics, which will include a climate-focused lens as well as identify law and policy approaches to environmental justice and a just transitions framework.
