Majora Carter keynote, originally uploaded by It’s a mobile world.

I saw the presentation of Majora Carter at the Vårt Klimat conference, she presented the idea of environmental justice, how pollution is also a poverty and and racial issue. Really interesting to see a hands-on approach on sustainability, green-collar jobs, greenroofs inititatives, grassroot community building.
