This past Saturday marked the National Green Jobs Day of Action – thousands of people showed up at hundreds of rallies across the United States to call for political support for green jobs. Carolyn Mansfield, our Community Engagement Associate, met up with folks from Global Exchange, the Apollo Alliance, and more to speak out for green jobs at the opening of the California Academy of Sciences – take a look at the event report here. We spent the afternoon in Oakland, where we were a proud sponsor of the Ella Baker Center’s concert and rally. We had a great time meeting with a bunch of folks, hearing about their green job aspirations, and, of course, enjoying the sun and great music. Our photos are up on our flickr account – take a peek!
