Join Young Professionals in Energy SF Bay Area for an evening of conversation with local organizers, advocates, and community leaders advancing energy justice for local communities. For decades, low-income communities and communities of color across the Bay Area have disproportionately faced the harms of pollution, environmental degradation, and inequitable energy infrastructure.
Our panelists will share firsthand experiences from their work and communities, highlighting both the challenges and the progress being made toward a more just and sustainable future. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the intersection of energy, equity, and climate justice — and with tangible ways to support the movement for clean, healthy, and affordable environments for all.
Our panelists include:
Jessica Tovar, Local Clean Energy Alliance
Yolanda Sanchez, ex-Environmental Protection Agency
Reclaim Our Power Utility Justice Campaign
GRID Alternatives
