Environmental ActivistYou’re invited to “Take the Movement Home & Build it in the Streets: Pandemic Perspectives on the Climate Crisis,” a virtual talk with California environmental activist mark! Lopez, on Tuesday, October 12 at 4:30pm.

Then join the Q&A to follow, hosted by Skyline College Library and moderated by Chemistry Professor Susanne Schubert and Librarian Pia Walawalkar.

In 2017, Lopez received the prestigious, international Goldman Environmental Prize for North American for his successful campaign to get California to provide comprehensive lead testing and cleanup of East Los Angeles homes contaminated by a battery smelter. However, his work as a community organizer and activist began long before then. Find out more in this interview with Lopez and learn more here: guides.skylinecollege.edu/Fall2021Events/MarkLopez
