Clean Air, Clean Lungs, Clean Buses Campaign

This year we're working on raising $10,000 to build support around the Wilshire Bus-Only Lanes Campaign
which is so close to victory. To kick off our fundraising effort, we
had our first event on Saturday January 30th--Clean Air Campaign Yard
Sale.

2009 marks an important harvest of our last 5 years of hard work
organizing bus riders, local businesses, public health and community
allies and the local elected officials like former councilmember Wendy
Greuel and Bill Rosendahl, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard. With the full $23.3 million of federal funding secured, the tide has turned to move the Wilshire Bus-Only Lanes Project into reality.

Many of the key lessons of the environmental justice movement from the 80s and 90s fighting market driven policies in local campaigns can illuminate how we can re-shape the discussions around climate solutions in Congress this year.

Bolivian Climate Change Ambassador Pablo Erick Solon Romero Oroza speaks about an environmental justice platform that Bolivia and many Latin American nations are demanding for as real solutions on climate change.
