Climate Justice in Philadelphia: An Info Session and Discussion
July 14 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Led by POWER Interfaith in conjuction with Bill Brookover exhibition “The Earth Has A Fever”
Impacts of climate change and global warming are happening yet we don’t know where to start. POWER Interfaith, a grass roots organization of Pennsylvania congregations and individuals committed to racial and economic justice on a livable planet is working on Climate Justice and Jobs.
We’ll hear about current campaigns in Philadelphia to hold public utilities to account to reduce their use of fossil fuels and about the Whole Home Repair Program, which pays for critical repairs to homes and apartments. The program makes it possible for residents to stay in their homes, while also reducing energy costs and dependence on fossil fuels.
Together we can make a difference!
This event and free and open to all. Suggested donation to attend is $5 per person.
DVAA is a historic row home in the Bella Vista neighborhood. We are not yet wheelchair accessible; Da Vinci is a three floor gallery with narrow staircases. (We are working towards becoming ADA accessible by 2027!) It is 5 steps up to the first floor level, and 14 steps from the first to second floor, where the gender-neutral bathroom is located. Da Vinci has masks and COVID tests available at our events. We can reserve seats for low-vision and Deaf and HoH community members as needed.
