NECA’s The History of Environmental Justice

June 23, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

The events of 2020 and 2021 (thus far) have heightened the focus on diversity, equity and inclusion issues throughout our nation and industry.  There is an increased focus on how disadvantaged communities are impacted by climate change and decisions related to siting of energy infrastructure.   Join NECA for a one hour webinar to learn about the history of Environmental Justice (EJ), how EJ is being incorporated at the federal level, and how EJ was incorporated into the recently enacted Massachusetts Climate Change Law.

Betsy Mason, Senior Counsel, Klavens Law Group

Massachusetts Senator James Eldridge
