Overview:
 
Our most basic public health protections are under attack. At the same time our ability to provide input into the decision-making process has been whittled away. These actions are especially dire for communities of color, low-income communities, and indigenous communities, who already face disproportionate impacts from pollution, sagging infrastructure, and climate change. While United States Congressional Members of color and green organizations are stepping up to protect our communities, there is more work to be done to reverse historic wrongs and current actions being taken by the current Administration.
 
In episode six of Think 100%, we sit down with United States Senator Cory Booker to dig into the challenges and solutions. Also joining us are leaders from Green Peace USA, an organization at the front-lines of the biggest fights to free us from fossil fuels that are causing climate change. The League of Conservation Voters will also be dropping by to let us know just how well Members of Congress are doing to protect our communities and planet. You don’t want to miss this episode.

Relentless. (Kerene Tayloe, Green For All + Kelly Miller, Human Rights Advocate) [Oct 9, 2018]

Our hosts were joined by two relentless advocates fighting injustice, driving community-led solutions, and empowering the disenfranchised — Kerene Tayloe and Kelly Miller. As someone facing homelessness, Kelly gave us an incredible perspective on unreported impacts from climate change and shared how her perseverance as an advocate is helping create policy solutions. Kerene focused on empowering women, organizing climate refugees to vote, and building solutions that have lasting positive health, economic, and housing outcomes for everyone.

As someone facing homelessness, Kelly gave us an incredible perspective on unreported impacts from climate change and shared how her perseverance as an advocate is helping create policy solutions. Kerene focused on empowering women, organizing climate refugees to vote, and building solutions that have lasting positive health, economic, and housing outcomes for everyone.

 Our most basic public health protections are under attack. At the same time our ability to provide input into the decision-making process has been whittled away. These actions are especially dire for communities of color, low-income communities, and indigenous communities, who already face disproportionate impacts from pollution, sagging infrastructure, and climate change. While United States Congressional Members of color and green organizations are stepping up to protect our communities, there is more work to be done to reverse historic wrongs and current actions being taken by the current Administration.

 
In episode six of Think 100%, we sit down with United States Senator Cory Booker to dig into the challenges and solutions. Also joining us are leaders from Green Peace USA, an organization at the front-lines of the biggest fights to free us from fossil fuels that are causing climate change. The League of Conservation Voters will also be dropping by to let us know just how well Members of Congress are doing to protect our communities and planet. You don’t want to miss this episode.
 
Check out some of the topics we’ll be covering in this episode: 
Episode Guests:
  • Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ)
  • Annie Leonard, Executive Director, Greenpeace USA
  • Deepa Padmanabha, Deputy General Counsel, Greenpeace USA
  • Tiernan Sittenfeld, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs, League of Conservation Voters
