50th Anniversary Of Earth Day

 

Reginald Hardwick/Illinois Newsroom

Environmental advocacy groups say Earth Day 2020 is an opportunity to assess legislative priorities, and what we need to do to tackle other global problems, like climate change and environmental inequality. It can happen even as people across the planet observe stay-at-home orders because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Guests: 

Jen Walling, executive director of the Illinois Environmental Council

Jack Darin, chapter director at The Sierra Club Illinois
