Join CCJ at the The People vs. Oil and Natural Gas Summit from Friday, November 17 – Monday, November 20 at the Omni William Penn in Pittsburgh. This Summit is an opportunity for communities who are fighting back against fossil fuels to gather to share stories, strategies, and skills, as well as to collaborate with other communities who are doing the same kinds of work across the country. Most exciting, on Monday we will taking action at energy companies’ headquarters to make it clear we will not stop fighting for our homes, water, and air.
Participants are able to choose from a variety of presentations and panels throughout the weekend so that they are able to tailor their participation to address the needs of their communities.
