Steph and Eddie begin this week’s episode with a recap of some OCPS business: Denim Day, a debate about the dress code, and SAFE coordinator cuts. Then they welcome Lee Perry to the podcast (14:20). Lee is a climate activist, campaigner, and podcast host here in Orange County. Lee begins by discussing her background in climate activism and how she works to bring together folks with differing views. Next, the crew discusses institutional barriers to making change in local government and what we can do to change that. They also talk about how we’re failing students and young people when it comes to education around climate change (45:46), and how important it is to be an involved and accessible elected official. Lastly, we dig into Lee’s podcast, Organizing to Victory, and how Lee recharges.
