The Green New Deal is a bold, intersectional plan for solving the climate crisis, widespread inequality, while creating millions of good jobs in the process.

But what does that look like and how do we talk with our friends, family, and broader community about its vision? This teach-in covers the nuts and bolts of the Green New Deal in a straightforward and fun way. It is meant for anyone who wants to better understand what the Green New Deal is all about as well as some of the next steps that the Sunrise movement is taking to ensure that this is the decade of the Green New Deal.

Agenda:
• About Sunrise’s “Good Jobs For All” Campaign
• The crises we’re facing
• The Green New Deal
• The Power We Need to Win
• The Moment We’re In (including Biden’s Infrastructure Package & The Ed Markey’s Civilian Climate Corps Bill)
• Green New Deal Criticisms & Responses
• From Climate Chaos to Climate Solutions
• A Just Transition
• Time for Action!

On June 5th and 6th, 2021, Sunrise is calling on it’s Sunrise hubs and motivated individuals alike to host your own Green New Deal Teach-in with your community (whether virtual or in-person).
