The Current Climate: In Conversation with Heather McTeer Toney & Tatiana Schlossberg
April 22, 2020
6:30 pm - 7:30 pm EDT
Please join Tatiana Schlossberg & Moms Clean Air Force Heather McTeer Toney on EARTH DAY!
On April 22 join WING digital for a critical conversation on how to stay engaged in the climate fight, even in quarantine. We’ll welcome special guest Heather McTeer Toney, the current National Field Director for Moms Clean Air Force and former mayor of Greenville, Mississippi. In 2014, she was appointed by President Barack Obama to serve as Regional Administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Southeast Region, and last year, she authored a powerful piece for The New York Times on why black women are leaders in the climate movement, which you can read HERE.
Heather, joined by moderator Tatiana Schlossberg (climate & environmental journalist and author of Inconspicuous Consumption) will break down what’s at stake across a range of environmental issues as COVID-19 continues to unfold and discuss the intersections of the pandemic, pollution, and inequality that are playing out globally. You’ll come away with new ideas for how to get and stay active on climate—both now, and post-COVID, too.
