And Majora is there today! We’ll be live-tweeting from @majoracarter – along with some tweets from Majora herself at the event! – but be sure to check in on the #nn10 hashtag to see everything that’s happening! For all the Majora-specific Netroots Nation updates, we’ve combined the hashtags here.

She’ll be speaking at 9am Pacific / 12pm Eastern on a panel entitled Environmental Conflict and Climate Change: The Grassroots vs Big Green

Then, at  10:30am Pacific / 1:30pm Eastern  she’ll be speaking on a panel entitled The Unusual Suspects: The Surprise Environmentalists Who Are Spreading the Clean Energy Gospel

She’ll also be kicking off the African American Caucus at 1pm Pacific / 4pm Eastern – you’ll have to follow along on twitter to see what’s happening there. No live feed!

Also, don’t miss her appearance at the Opening Keynote event at 7pm Pacific / 10pm Eastern, alongside Montana Gov.
