SUMMARY:Imperialism\, Ecocide\, and Climate Justice: A Conversation with Dr. Rania Masri of NCEJN
DESCRIPTION:Join NC WARN and Dr. Rania Masri\, the Director of Organizing and Policy at the North Carolina Environmental Justice Network (NCEJN)\, for a critical discussion on how ecocide is used as a tool of oppression and imperialism. \nDrawing on real-world examples\, including the ongoing genocide in Palestine\, the webinar will explore the relationships between imperialism and ecocide\, and discuss how environmental destruction is strategically deployed to seize land\, control water and resources\, and perpetuate systems of oppression. \nSettler-colonial violence and genocide cannot be separated from environmental harm\, which is why climate justice movements must address both and build pathways forward grounded in solidarity\, accountability\, and systemic transformation. \nThis event is on Tuesday\, March 24 at 5:30 pm.

SUMMARY:Data Center Moratorium Congressional Meeting Training
DESCRIPTION:Data Centers are creating real problems for communities\, from rising energy bills and strains on local water usage to noise and pollution. These harms are why people around the country are calling for a moratorium on data centers until we have federal laws in place to protect communities from these systemic harms. \nThe tech industry is pushing hard to expand data centers and we need our Representatives and Senators in DC to oppose these efforts and support a moratorium on data centers. \nCo-hosted by Anthropocene Alliance\, Center for Progressive Reform\, Food & Water Watch\, Southeast Climate and Energy Network\, this training we will give you the tools and skills to coordinate a local district meeting with your federal policy makers so you can educate them about harms data centers are having on your community and why we need them to stand up for our communities and not the tech industry. \nThis event will be held on Tuesday\, February 10 at 7:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Charlotte event: Workers and Advocates Hold Statewide Heat and Human Rights Events to Urge Adoption of Federal Heat Standards
DESCRIPTION:As the international community prepares to recognize Human Rights Day in the coming week\, a coalition of North Carolina organizations are leveraging the December 10th commemoration to call for basic protections for workers exposed to extreme temperatures on the job. The group is hosting three regional Heat and Human Rights Events on December 8th\, 9th\, and 10th. \nAccording to the North Carolina Department of Labor (NC DOL)\, employers operate under the General Duty Clause which states “Each employer shall furnish to each of his employee’s conditions of employment and a place of employment free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious injury or serious physical harm to his employees.” Labor and health advocates maintain that this clause is insufficient to protect workers. Our group asks to meet with Farley in January to discuss plans to protect workers from heat. \nRead the full press release here. \n\nCharlotte  (December 10 at 4.30 pm ) 206 E Tremont Ave
