The Environmental Justice Project focuses on improving air quality and reducing global warming emissions in California’s Central Valley. It employs three main strategies: training Latino Catholics to take leadership roles on climate and clean air issues in their parishes and communities, engaging parishes and community groups in regional policymaking to reduce transportation-related global warming emissions, and working with environmental justice and health partners to ensure that the state's global warming policies are implemented.
