Environmental Justice In NYC As COP28 Begins

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Dec 1, 2023

World leaders convened at the UN's COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai yesterday to discuss environmental policy on a global scale. Eddie Bautista, executive director of the NYC Environmental Justice Alliance, joins us to talk about some of the local impacts of climate change which includes flooding, a change in air quality and heat hazards as well as efforts to reduce climate harms that land heaviest on marginalized communities. Plus, listeners call in to share their suggestions for sustainability and environmental justice in their own areas.
