Opportunity to examine the intersection between climate change and social justice: Climate change has been identified as the 21st Century’s greatest threat to human health, and it will have the greatest impact on marginalized/underrepresented groups. All We Can Save is a book with a collection of works (all female authors, many of whom identify as people of color), and a simple concept—truth, courage, solutions. A group will meet to discuss the intersection between climate change, equity and marginalized communities. Cameron Kiersch would like to invite anyone who is interested in this engagement opportunity to contact him at cjkiersch@viterbo.edu and schedule a time to pick up a book (he can also drop off).
