Hosted by women at The National Wildllife Federation, Washington Women for Climate Action Now, and The Riveter. $10.
Who’s afraid of climate, equity, and women? Not you!
We are targeting you (women) for this important event because you’re a fearless Washington woman. That simple fact tells us you’re more likely than men—to vote, to believe that climate change is real, and to understand that there are workable technological solutions to the climate crisis. We need you to become engaged with the women’s climate movement in Washington, a movement that’s going to accelerate us into a clean energy future now.
If that’s not enough, let us pique your interest:
Which do you think is more difficult: talking about climate change or gender equity? How about race?
They can all be overwhelming and contentious. And there are so many barriers to making progress on any one of these issues. Maybe you’re not sure if it even matters if our climate scientists or politicians are women or women of color. Maybe you care about both the environment and equity, but what–if anything–do they have to do with each other?
Can environmentalists and diverse feminists work together?
We CAN learn from research connecting diverse women and climate change.
We CAN learn from the experience of women of color and labor in the environmental sector.
We CAN make progress on gender, racial, and economic equity and transition to a clean energy economy.
Washington Women CAN, and we will do it together . . . with your help.
We have a panel of five incredible climate feministas who will discuss these questions and more. RSVP now and read about them.
Please join us on the evening of October 12 at the Riveter, a fabulous new co-working space for women on Capitol Hill. Expect great wine, splendid food, remarkable women, and a clear understanding of what you can do to move forward the women’s climate movement in Washington.
Women (cis and trans) and allies are welcome.
Space is limited; we expect to sell out soon.
