P.S. Not holiday related but...

Oct. 31 webinar invitation - Build resilience with gender empowerment, sustainable food and reuse policies - Staff from the Center for Biological Diversity, Upstream Solutions and the Environmental Law Institute will discuss the use of climate plans to build climate-resilient solutions around food systems, reuse / refill solutions, and gender empowerment as a free side-event to the Planetary Health Alliance conference. Research will be shared that summarizes the inclusion of these topics into sustainability and climate plans and resources will be offered for others to build upon this work through practical policy recommendations.
