Have you ever thought about the impacts of the clean energy economy on rural communities? People with jobs in extractive industries? Those needing relocation due to climate impacts?
Matt Glazewski thinks about these impacts daily.
The director of the Washington Climate Corps Network, which is working to create a climate resilient Washington state through enterprising service projects, community partnership, and investments in the next generation of environmental leaders, Matt leads this network connecting people and organizations with funding, training, and shared resources to strengthen local capacity for climate solutions.
As you will hear, Matt’s approach is truly collaborative and inclusive. Here in the other Washington, Washington, DC, people tend to tell folks, this is what you have to do without engaging in the process. That is the opposite of what the Washington Climate Corps Network is doing.
