SUMMARY:NJSSC: An Intergenerational Storytelling Workshop for a Green Amendment
DESCRIPTION:Join NJSSC’s Green Amendment team this upcoming Earth Week to celebrate both our planet and the Green Amendment. The Green Amendment includes both present and future generations in its text\, and environmental issues are of the utmost concern to today’s youth. However\, we are not the first ones on the stage here! So\, following the Amendment’s lead\, join us for an intergenerational dialogue and storytelling session on the Green Amendment. We’ll do a brief training on storytelling\, then split into breakout rooms with members representing as many different generations as possible where you will tell your own story about why you care about the Green Amendment. Our goal is to foster a safe space for sharing and hearing stories and for communicating between generations. \nSign up at tiny.cc/GA_workshop for the event on April 24\, 12 PM! You can learn more about our student campaign at tiny.cc/GA_facts.

SUMMARY:Unitarian Church of Somerville\, NJ
DESCRIPTION:New Jersey legislators have proposed a constitutional Green Amendment that will recognize and protect the rights of all the people of the state\, including future generations\, to pure water\, clean air\, a stable climate and healthy environments. \nFor decades\, communities have relied on Federal and State laws to ensure protection of a clean environment. And for decades\, while achieving some important successes in environmental protection\, overall\, the health of our environment for present and future generations has continued to degrade. Currently\, our laws are designed to accommodate pollution rather than to prevent it.  But there is a solution for achieving better\, and much needed\, protection of our environment\, and that is to turn to the ultimate authority—our state and federal constitutions. \nWe all have the right to pure water\, clean air\, and a healthy environment.  It’s time to focus on how to truly secure that right for our own sake and that of future generations.  What would a Green Amendment mean for the state of New Jersey? What is its impact to stewardship and environmental justice?   What can you do to help? \nCome to a presentation by Maya K. van Rossum on 3/30/21 at 7:15 pm.  Maya K. van Rossum an award-winning Founder of Green Amendments For the Generations\, a grassroots non-profit organization inspiring a nationwide movement to secure constitutional recognition and protection of environmental rights in every state and ultimately at the federal level. \nParticipation in this event is free\, but you must register in advance to get the event link.

SUMMARY:Albuquerque Oasis Spring Classes - The NM Green Amendment: Securing Your Right to a Healthy Environment
DESCRIPTION:Join Maya van Rossum’s class on the New Mexico Green Amendment with Albuquerque Oasis on Zoom. \nJanuary 28\, 10:00-11:30am MT \nRegister here\, Registration fee: $10 \nIn the decades-long fight for a cleaner environment\, we have been fighting a losing battle. The sad truth is\, our laws are designed to accommodate pollution\, rather than prevent it. The solution is to bypass the laws and turn to the ultimate authority: our state and federal constitutions. Maya van Rossum lays out a new agenda for environmental advocacy that can empower every American state to mobilize for constitutional change\, including New Mexico. Maya van Rossum is the founder of Green Amendments For The Generations\, a grassroots non-profit organization inspiring the nationwide movement to secure constitutional recognition and protection of environmental rights in every state and ultimately at the federal level. She is also the Delaware Riverkeeper. For more than 26 years\, she has been the leader of the Delaware Riverkeeper Network\, a regional nonprofit organization that uses advocacy\, science\, and litigation to protect the Delaware River and its tributaries. \nThe New Mexico Green Amendment movement is growing. On January 4\, New Mexico legislators pre-filed the Joint Resolution to amend the state constitution’s Bill of Rights to recognize and protect the environmental rights of all people of Mexico.
