Environmental-Climate Summit – “Houston Strong”
September 29, 2023 @ 12:00 pm – September 30, 2023 @ 6:00 pm
This is actually two coordinated events. HPJC is a co-sponsor. Pre-register separately for both.
The CEC Greater Houston Environmental Summit is a half day ticketed event on Friday, September 29. Proceeds will go to the Citizens’ Environmental Coalition, to enable and support their continuing work of over 50 years.
The following day, on Saturday, September 30, the Houston Community Climate Summit will be a full day, free event.
Bringing these two together builds off of the work we have all been striving towards, and strengthens the coalition across the Greater Houston Area, as well as Jefferson County and the Greater Texas Gulf Coast, creating stronger resiliency among us.
