We’ll be joined by reporters with climate chops: the Los Angeles Times’ Tony Barboza and Canary Media’s Maria Gallucci take the energy transition as their starting point. We’ll also be joined by Nina Ignaczak at Planet Detroit and Delaney Dryfoos with The Lens, who will show us the countless options that link back to water. In addition, you'll learn about a website that will help you pinpoint the climate and water projects happening in your area.
