At 2PM on Thursday, April 23rd, Michele (Director of SJPJC) will be speaking on a panel called “COVID-19 versus Climate Crisis.” In the midst of the current COVID-19 Crisis, this webinar will teach people how the COVID-19 Crisis relates to and affects the Climate Crisis. The webinar will start off with a detailed explanation of the two situations, then relate them onto each other. You will examine what can be learned from each situation and how to move forward using that knowledge. After the presentation, there will be a Q&A panel discussion with a few experts on the topic.
