Maine's Green New Deal Champion Sep 28, 2021

Show notes

On this VERY special crossover episode of Generation Green New Deal & INHERITED, we're taking you on a trip up to Maine to meet an inspiring young leader, striving for change, who is leading the fight for a Green New Deal, and equitable climate solutions in her neck of the woods. Maine State Senator, Chloe Maxmin.

GenGND & INHERITED spent Election Day 2020 with Chloe and her Campaign Manager, Canyon Woodward, on their final push to elect Chloe to the State Senate, after getting elected as a State Representative in 2018. This is the story of how they got there, from growing up in MidCoast Maine, to sparking the Divestment movement at Harvard, and then figuring out their place in the climate movement upon graduation. Listen to Chloe and Canyon's inspiring story!

Green New NEWS May 13, 2021

Show notes

There's been A LOT of Green New Deal news over the last month. From the reintroduction of the Green New Deal Resolution itself, to the introduction of the THRIVE Act, the debates swirling around President Biden's Infrastructure plan, the Green New Deal for Cities, the Green New Deal for Schools, the Green New Deal for Public Housing, and the Civilian Climate Corps Act, it's been hard keeping track of everything!

That's why, on this special bonus episode, we asked Sunrise Movement's Press Secretary Ellen Sciales & Data For Progress Vice President Julian Brave-Noisecat to help break it all down for us.
