From increased flooding to extended droughts, braving new climate change realities will present challenges for already struggling communities across the globe. Anticipating what the justice implications could be, and developing effective solutions to face them, will be the topic for discussion at our annual event on October 2nd at the Copacabana in NYC.? Hear from the prophets and innovators who are at the forefront of climate justice working to ensure that we are all able to weather the next storm.
