There are a lot of new details and of course, there’s always something new to say about our work and our vision.

Majora Carter takes a visionary approach to solving the problem of urban blight. In the 1990s, she successfully led the South Bronx through environmental renewal and now serves as president of Majora Carter Group, a green-economic development consulting firm. Carters presentation is No More Single Purpose Anything.

We like this one because Majora gets to talk about the national (and international) implications of environmental justice … it’s a great sequel to the 2006 talk and we hope you enjoy all the new details! Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
