Hi y’all! 👋🏽 This week, host Sam Chavez (she/they/he) speaks with community organizer, Daniella Sherrill (she/her) about the critical issues surrounding water access and rights in the Southwest, particularly in Arizona. She shares her experience with Arizona Water for All, a program to support water-insecure communities to improve water security and agency. Watch today's episode.
"Water is life, it unites us."
I love how Daniella helps to humanize water access issues and how decisions by elites in big cities impact real people on the ground. We also discuss why empowering leadership in communities is crucial to building shifting our world towards a caring climate future. Upgrade to a listen to the full conversation.
