This event will be covering the Monarch butterfly, what people can do to help and also how it connects to some Mexican cultures and beliefs. 

The mountains of Southern California are islands of biodiversity, rising from the sea of desert around them. These "sky islands" are home to many lizards, plants, and other creatures found nowhere else on Earth.

Follow their story through hundreds of thousands of years of changing climate to see how they reached the places we find them today, see how unprecedented new climate shifts are threatening them in the present, and learn what you can do to help build a resilient future for lizards, plants, (and everyone else!)

Presented by Colin Barrows, a Coachella Valley naturalist with the Mt. San Jacinto Natural History Association and CactusToCloud, who advocates for the conservation of open spaces and native species by working with local agencies to advance habitat conservation, recreational trails planning, and promote community science to grow public understanding and appreciation of desert ecosystems.

Breathe Southern California (Breathe Socal) is a non-profit organization that promotes clean air and healthy lungs through education, research, technology, and advocacy.

We are collaborating with Energy Upgrade California to conduct an educational workshop focusing on the Time Of Use (TOU) for home energy efficiency.

Workshop goals include:

• Educating the community on air pollution and the effects on our health
• Educating the community on how air pollution is connected to our energy use
• Educating the community on what renewable energy is vs non-renewable
• Educating the community about the TOU and peak of energy use in their home
• Provide community with tips and resources to reduce energy and more info on TOU. 

We can all take part in reducing our energy at home during 4-9 pm the hours when demand is high and renewable resources are low. 

Event will be on FB live- Breathe Southern California

Join Audubon California, Latino Outdoors, and Hispanic Access Foundation as we celebrate Latino Conservation Week!

Having meaningful conversations that shape our views on who and what belongs in nature is more important now than ever. Who decides what is native and what is not native in nature? Why is it that a person that just relocated (migrated) to Los Angeles can have their offspring considered a “California Native,” but plants and animals will always be associated with their land of origin. Tune into a conversation with members of the Indigenous community in Los Angeles as they discuss what it means for plants and people to be Native or Non-native.

Don't miss out on Mapping Migraciones: Native vs. Non-native on Thursday, July 22nd from 5:30pm PT/8:30pm ET!

Please join us for this VIRTUAL session to learn more about issues of clean air, climate, and toxins that affect the health of Latino children and families from Erandi Trevino of EcoMadres, bringing Latina moms (and grandmas) together to address educate, engage and empower members to have conversations with lawmakers about the environment’s effect on our children’s health.

Born from a meaningful partnership between Moms Clean Air Force and founding partner GreenLatinos, the EcoMadres program now includes a broad cross-section of Latino organizations and plans to expand into even more communities where Latinos live and work.

Nacido de una significativa asociación entre Moms Clean Air Force y uno de los fundadores, GreenLatinos, el programa EcoMadres se ha ampliado para incluir una amplia selección de organizaciones latinas y tiene planeado expandirse a incluso más comunidades donde viven y trabajan latinos. EcoMadres educa, involucra y potencia a sus miembros para que puedan discutir con los legisladores sobre el efecto del medioambiente en la salud de nuestros hijos.
