Peer-reviewed paper on energy efficiency and land use justice

At Urban Environmentalists, our bread and butter is grassroots advocacy. But it's important to advance thought leadership in our field, too! We're honored that our peer-reviewed paper on Energy Efficiency, Land Use, and Equity was accepted into the conference proceedings of the ACEEE Summer Study on Energy Efficiency in Buildings, a leading national conference that takes place biennially.
​
The paper was written by our executive director, Joanna Gubman, and lead volunteer Vanessa Boehm. Joanna presented at the conference this past Friday, where we were able to meet and learn from a number of potential new coalition partners. We look forward to jointly exploring how energy efficiency programs and policies can actively pursue land use justice, not just technological solutions, to better help both people and planet.
