Spanish Sin Pena encourages people to engage with Spanish openly, and without judgement. Oftentimes, members of this group communicate through spanglish. Keeping this same format throughout the event, we will be introducing GreenLatinos to the group. We’ll dive  a bit into what GL nationally is doing, and then more specifically here in Chicago. We’ll talk about our campaigns (UGI and ICJC work) and engage directly with topics like climate change and other environmental issues more broadly with the group.

The Tijuana River flows across borders, communities, and cultures, carrying with the legacy of failed binational trade commitments, resulting in  decades of pollution, environmental injustice, and serious public health risks. Join GreenLatinos and Un Mar de Colores for this timely webinar exploring how leaders, advocates, and community members are working together to address one of the most pressing environmental disasters  along our shared border. Learn about the innovative tri-national strategies to protect water, restore ecosystems, and ensure healthier futures for the communities who depend on this vital river.
