About 45 people attended a meeting about “Just Transition” to green jobs, Aug. 19, at the Port of Los Angeles High School in San Pedro.

The meeting, organized by South Bay 350.org included people from neighborhoods stretching from Palos Verdes to Long Beach and the beach
cities to San Pedro.

POLA students presented some of their signs in preparation for the Labor Day march where the Just Transition movement shall have a contingent marching.

The 350.org presentation showed quite clearly that the technical prowess was available to greatly slow climate change if we can muster the political will.  The discussion of true clean energy that is affordable and offers good, green jobs to the energy sector was coupled with the dire health statistics of our Harbor area and South Bay children.
