There’s a quick and simple way to tell if a climate change solution is legitimate, according to Anaïs Peterson.
“If it’s not talking about getting off of fossil fuels in a just and immediate way, it’s not a viable or real climate solution,” Peterson said.
Peterson, who graduated from Pitt in 2020, was one of a few dozen people who gathered on Carnegie Mellon University’s campus on Wednesday afternoon to protest the first-ever Global Clean Energy Action Forum, which takes place this week in Pittsburgh. At the GCEAF, representatives from the government, international organizations, the private sector, academia and more will come together to discuss clean energy solutions to climate change. The climate strike included several speeches, the blessing of a Native American totem pole of the Lummi Nation and a march through Oakland.
