Earth Day Rally/March – 4/22

Greetings from the Social Workers for Environmental Justice student group!

Please see the information below about an Earth Day rally/march on April 22nd starting at noon.

As social workers, we know that marginalized communities are hit first and hardest by the impacts of climate change.  Please join us in encouraging Seattle to set large building decarbonization standards that align with the urgency of the climate crisis.  Electrification of large buildings will include schools, libraries, and large apartment buildings that will benefit many of those most at risk of climate impacts.  Plus, electrification will often involve moving to heat pumps which can provide air conditioning during our increasing summer heat!

The event will be family friendly and include some great theater, dance, and art!
