Join the Sustainability Now Podcast for a special film screening and Q&A on Earth Day, April 22 at 7:00pm EDT. Hosts Scott Bille and Mira Rubin will host two special guests to help us celebrate the 50th anniversary of Pennsylvania’s Environmental Rights Amendment – the amendment that inspired the national Green Amendment Movement.
Mark Lichty will share his short film Fractured State that shines a light on the damage being done by the fracking industry in Pennsylvania.
Maya van Rossum will talk about how she led the charge to breathe new life into Pennsylvania’s long ignored environmental rights amendment in 2013, and how she’s using it as a model to push for constitutional protections in states around the country as a means to protect the people’s right to pure water, clean air, and a healthy environment.
