November 1, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Join us to learn how you can educate your friends, neighbors, family, and elected leaders on why we need the Connecticut Environmental Rights Amendment – aka Connecticut’s Green Amendment.

In this 1 hour zoominar you will build confidence in how to speak about the CTERA – aka CT Green Amendment – so you can become an active educator and leader in this historic effort to secure constitutional protection of our environmental rights.

You will learn from the national expert and local CTERA leaders:

  • How the CTERA – aka CT Green Amendment –– can empower environmental protection, environmental justice, and action to address the climate crisis
  • How you can answer the many questions asked about a Green Amendment and why we need it in our state
  • How amendments of this kind have secured essential protections in the 3 states that have them
  • How you can help build community awareness and interest of legislators about this essential pathway for environmental protection

If you want to invest a little extra time; the session will include an additional half hour session where individuals can practice answering some of the frequently asked questions discussed in the first hour, or where you can share your 2 minute elevator pitch on how and why the CTERA is needed in Connecticut.
