Paris to Pittsburgh shines a light on the many forgotten communities and people who have been greatly affected by climate change in our country, as well as solutions for how we can fight back and reduce our carbon footprint. State and city leaders have stepped up to meet the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement – a 75% reduction of greenhouse gasses by 2050. Learn about Fleet Farming in Orlando, ex-con solar panel installers, new jobs in wind energy and New York City’s revolutionary zero waste campaign, encouraging new consumer disposal habits.
