Congratulations to our partners who supported access to culturally relevant climate and environmental justice education for all of California’s 6.2 million K-12 students!
A trailer bill appropriating $6 million to create free educational resources on climate change and environmental justice was signed into law as part of AB 130 on July 9, 2021. We thank Senator Ben Allen for his leadership, the more than 165 endorsers of the bill, and all of our advocating partners!
