Скачать или смотреть CECC | Defending Environmental Justice in a Time of Deregulation and Rollbacks

This past March, we brought together experts, advocates, and community leaders to discuss how the current administration’s policies undermine environmental justice through regulatory rollbacks, funding cuts, and weakened enforcement. Panelists explore the real-world impact on frontline and fenceline communities, strategies for resistance, and the role of advocacy in protecting hard-won EJ gains.

Panelists included:
Michael Payan, Sussex Health and Environmental Network
Quenton King, Appalachian Voices
Veronica Eady, Policy Consultant and Environmental Lawyer
David Wheaton, Legal Defense Fund

The Clean Economy Coalition of Color (CECC) is an alliance of some of the nation’s most insightful Black, Latinx/e, Indigenous, Asian, and Pacific Islander leaders and advocates of color that are committed to amplifying ideas, recommendations, and solutions that uplift the priorities and economic interests of historically marginalized communities by guiding clean energy economy policies and implementation.

The National Wildlife Federation’s Environmental Justice, Health, and Community Resilience and Revitalization program hopes to uplift equitable policies to inform decision-makers, share resources to build capacity among CECC member organizations, unpack legislation and policies that impact our communities, and highlight leaders of color that are currently operating in the clean economy to share best practices and lessons learned.
