ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT THE CLIMATE CRISIS?
WE CAN HELP YOU FIND COMMUNITY AND A WAY TO CHANNEL YOURANXIETY INTO CLIMATE ACTION
“There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.” – Margaret J. Wheatley
“Never believe that a few caring people can’t change the world. For, indeed, that’s all who ever have.” – Margaret Mead
Join us for an evening of community building and mobilization. GWC, Denver Law, and Citizens Climate Lobby are inviting students across campus to discuss ways to turn our anxiety over climate change into concrete policy action. The event will be held on Oct 10 with a student panel. We invite participation by all GWC and ELS community members. For questions and suggestions, please contact Nadav Orian Peer (nadav.orianpeer@colordo.edu) and KK DuVivier (kkduviver@law.du.edu).

Join us to hear from a panel of local climate justice organizers who’ve transformed their concerns about the climate crisis into a diverse range of actions, ranging from sustainable food production to political advocacy, and everything in between. Stick around to discuss your own ideas in small groups, meet new folks, and connect with local organizations at CU and in the broader community.
