Community Empowerment Through the Environment Conference
Tuesday, July 8th, 2008This conference was held April 20-21, 2007 at Haverford College and was presented by: the Earthquakers, Committee on Environmental Responsibility, Women’s Center, Students’ Council, OMA, Deans Office, and President Tritton.
Concern for the environment rests not only with scientific research on issues such as global warming and a wide range of contaminants, but also in how the choices we make individually and as communities directly impact the environment as a whole. The Conference was geared to celebrate what Haverford College and other communities, both in the Philadelphia area and beyond, are doing to heighten awareness of our interconnected-ness, and in turn empower ourselves through that connection.
