Climate change is the most pressing issue of our time. But faced with a federal government that is hostile to climate science, leaders across the U.S. are taking action themselves to safeguard our health and our environment.

Join Gina McCarthy, former U.S. EPA Administrator and Director of the Center for Climate, Health and the Global Environment (C-CHANGE) at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in a screening and panel discussion of "Paris to Pittsburgh," a new documentary from Bloomberg Philanthropies and Radical Media. Panelists were featured in the documentary and conversations will explore the role of media in increasing public awareness and how local, private sector and community leaders can continue to work towards the Paris Agreement despite federal inaction on climate change.
