S5 Ep53: "The Climate Change Economy is for Us" Michelle Romero Chief Strategy Officer of Dream.org

Latinas From The Block To The Boardroom

In this podcast episode, We discuss the 369 Billion Dollar Inflation Reduction Act, from the Biden Administration… for climate change investments, solutions to reduce the high costs of living, which can help with lowering costs for households that may not otherwise know they have access to such opportunities. Who is this green economy really for? We break it down with Michelle Romero, Chief Strategy Officer at Dream.org who is using policy for change. From early beginnings out of college fighting for immigration rights to seeing how we can be the future for climate change at Dream.org for Social, Racial and Economic justice. Michelle has seen the "green" movement from a popular stand point or lens, from save the polar bears and turtles and hugging trees, etc., but as a Latina on the outside looking in, she states, "we support the brown and black folks in GREEN for ALL messaging and that's where she found herself working at the intersection to help our communities. How can we invest and build for the future, invest in our communities for a sustainable future if economies are not investing and creating opportunities for communities of color.
