Go to your local chapter's page to find out more about your chapter's plans for listening in. July's Monthly Meeting took place on Saturday, July 9th at 1:00 pm ET and featured a conversation with w/ Nathaniel Stinnett, Environmental Voter Project Executive Director.

You may be surprised that not all environmentalists vote. In fact, as a group, they vote at far lower rates than most people. Information on how often constituents' vote is publicly available, and members of Congress prioritize the concerns of those who actually vote. This may explain why some politicians don't prioritize climate change. On this month's call, Nathaniel Stinnett from Environmental Voter Project will share how his organization is changing the voting behavior of people concerned about preserving a livable climate. The Founder and Executive Director of EVP, Stinnett is a frequent expert speaker on cutting-edge campaign techniques and the behavioral science behind getting people to vote. He has held a variety of senior leadership and campaign manager positions on U.S. Senate, congressional, state, and mayoral campaigns.

Watch the July 21st Extended Q&A with Nathaniel Stinnett!
