Our Executive Director Kerry Bowie had the pleasure of joining Jason Jacobs on the MCJ Collective Podcast for a conversation about the motivations behind our push for diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice in clean energy and climate industries, and how BGS is working on building a just energy transition for Black and Brown communities.
Tune into the full episode here to learn more about how BGS strives to connect people of color with their fair share of “environmental goods”.
Prior to the current dual crises of the day – a healthcare pandemic and a police brutality epidemic – climate change and the wealth gap were arguably the two biggest issues we faced as a nation here in the U.S. These two problems still loom and will unfortunately still be with us even after a vaccine for COVID-19 is fully distributed and policing reform has been enacted. The Browning the Green Space Initiative is working on addressing climate change while closing the wealth gap, and we hope that you will join us in this fight!
