Today’s fires, droughts, and hurricanes are continually reminding us that climate change is happening now, and that overwhelmingly, the disadvantaged suffer the most. The recent IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report emphasized the need for urgent action. There are many nonprofits and agencies working locally on different aspects of mitigation and resilience. What are the collective goals across sectors? How can we work together more effectively to reach those goals?
