Virtual Earth Day

Join Green Foothills and a line up of inspirational speakers for the 50th celebration of Earth Day. Let’s gather as a community, celebrate how far we have come, what we are accomplishing together, and ground our community in the work ahead. Hear from:

  • Co-founder of Earth Day and former Congressman Pete McCloskey and his wife Helen on the story behind the first Earth Day in 1970 and how activism changed U.S. policies
  • Assemblymember Ash Kalra, our event emcee, about organizing the growing green movement
  • Amah Mutsun Tribal Band Chairman Valentin Lopez on the campaign to save and steward sacred lands
  • Jamie Minden and Helen Deng of Silicon Valley Youth Climate Strike on the need to protect Coyote Valley
  • Green Foothills Legislative Advocate Alice Kaufman about the fight to protect wetlands along the Bay

Don’t miss the chance to ask questions from this first-rate panel of speakers during the Q&A. Also look forward to an inspirational performance by Chris Reed of Sunny State.


Cohosted by: Green Foothills, Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, the office of Assemblymember Ash Kalra, Silicon Valley Youth Climate Strike, South Bay Indigenous Solidarity, Mothers Out Front, Calpulli Tonalehqueh, and Friends of Juristac
