Posted on by

Please join the Bexar Greens and Climate Action SA for a General Organizing meeting to discuss ways we can build a climate justice movement in San Antonio and Bexar County. The meeting will be held on

Saturday 6 October from 11am to 12:30pm at

Eco Centro, 1802 Main Ave San Antonio TX 78212

The City of San Antonio is currently in the process of developing a Climate Action and Adaptation Plan to guide climate-change mitigation and adaptation policies over the next 20 years. We must insist that the plan achieve true climate justice by prioritizing the needs of vulnerable communities. In order for the plan to be robust and effective, it must address the most severe climate impacts and hold polluters accountable. We cannot accomplish these goals without the full participation of the public. Help us build a massive climate movement that will say NO to greenhouse gas pollution and YES to a clean energy, sustainable future for our community and for the world.

BEXAR COUNTY GREEN PARTY PARTNER IN CLIMATE ACTION COALITION

Posted on by

Greens and Allies,

The Bexar County Green Party is participating member of Climate Action Coalition.  The CAC is composed of over forty members and is currently in discussion with the City of San Antonio (COSA) to develop and implement a sustainable plan of development and to meet the challenges of global climate change.  Furthermore, the BCGP is advocating for the inclusion of all members of the community especially the historically excluded and oppressed sectors of San Antonio and demanding their inclusion in this CAC. Currently, the CAC has meetings during the day and midweek and recently added a meeting time in the evenings to accomodate working class persons.  The CAC is scheduling to meet with the Mayor regarding the creation of a committee and representation on this committee.  At the present, the composition and creation of the committee is being debated and had been decided upon with little to no input from CAC. Updates on the committee being created and policies of the CAC will be provided as known.   For more info please call 210-440-1195.
