In celebration of Earth Month, the Imua Podcast will be hosting the podcast Intersections, produced by 'Iolani student Audrey Lin '25. Intersections is a podcast that strives to examine the interdisciplinary and intergenerational workings of the globe’s fight to stop climate change by “talking story” with leaders who are in the sustainability space. If you are interested in these conversations, please come to 'Iolani’s Intersections Sustainability Fair on Saturday, April 27, 2024.

Today, we are featuring Marti Townsend, a climate law champion. She is the former director of the Hawaiʻi Chapter of the Sierra Club, former executive director for KAHEA: The Hawaiian-Environmental Alliance, a prominent voice in the Shut Down Red Hill movement, and a specialist for Earth Justice.

As you listen to this podcast, keep an ear out for Ms. Townsend’s advice on how to get involved in environmental law. In addition, she speaks extensively about the significance of the Youth v. Gov (or Navahine F. V. Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation case).
