We Will Get What We Need from Congress This Year: The 1st 100 Days

The National Teach-In Webast is up. Featuring Jesse Tolkan, Billy Parish, and Wahleah Johns, this webcast addresses the following topics:

- Why are these First 100 Days so critical in taking the steps we need to address climate change?
- Why should Congress listen to Young People?
- What could our country look like in ten years if we enact policies that fully address the climate crisis?
- How are communities of faith playing a pivotal role in the climate discussion?

There is a campus version and a faith version. Please watch, and add your responses to the discussion questions posted at Re:Vision TV.

The National Teach-In now has nearly 800 campuses, congregations, and community organizations signed up to participate, and dozens of members of Congress committed to video-dialogues!
