Latine Energy Leaders: Tackling the Climate Crisis and Environmental Injustice in Wisconsin

Latine Energy Leaders: Tackling the Climate Crisis and Environmental Injustice in Wisconsin

Tuesday 10/15/24
4:30 pm - 5:30 pm

Environmental Justice is at the heart of addressing the climate crisis. In Wisconsin, Latine communities are often at the brunt of environmental impact. They face disproportionate effects from energy burden, health issues, and environmental racism. Despite these challenges, Latine leaders pave the way for equitable climate solutions. To close out National Latine Heritage Month, the Wisconsin Energy Institute will welcome a panel of experts and community leaders to discuss strategies for supporting these vulnerable communities.

We invite you to join us on October 15th to promote a more sustainable and inclusive future!

The panelists for this event are Cristina Carvajal, Mario Garcia Sierra, Victor Niño, Theresa Delgadillo with Justice Castañeda as the moderator. You can find out more about each panelist on the Wisconsin Energy Institute website.
