Green cred: <\/strong>You\u2019ve probably heard of President Obama\u2019s Clean Power Plan, which will govern carbon emissions from power plants<\/a>. You can thank White-Newsome for helping to shape it by making sure poor communities of color were heard by the EPA as it was being drafted (check out her Grist story here<\/a>). The agency has acknowledged<\/a> that for far too long, “many minority, low-income, tribal, and indigenous people in the United States have experienced higher levels of environmental pollution and other social and economic burdens.\u201d Because of White-Newsome\u2019s work, the EPA can more meaningfully tackle that discrepancy.<\/p>\n

What to expect in 2016:<\/strong> For White-Newsome, 2016 is all about supporting a host of environmental justice organizations<\/a> at the state level on the Clean Power Plan. States are co-regulators of the power plan, so support from organizations like WE ACT will help them align to reduce greenhouse emissions. \u201cI\u2019m really excited about highlighting the work of the state groups and working with state regulators to make sure they have the guidance and direction they need to make equity a key piece of their planning,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Best crash course in social media?<\/strong>\u00a0Interns. \u201cI\u2019m learning a lot from the interns I\u2019ve had about how to engage on social media,\u201d says White-Newsome. \u201cI\u2019m still learning.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
