FCAT says Earth needs a good lawyer

FALLBROOK – Fallbrook Climate Action Team will present a talk about EarthJustice Tuesday, Feb. 23, at 6:30 p.m. on Zoom. Sara (Pete) Gersen, a clean energy staff attorney will be the speaker.

Gersen is based in Los Angeles. Before joining Earthjustice, she was a law clerk for Justice Gregory Hobbs of the Colorado Supreme Court and completed a fellowship at the Environmental Law Institute in Washington. She also worked at the Environmental Defense Fund's Boulder office where she first served as a climate and clean air legal fellow and later as a contract attorney.

Gersen will explain what EarthJustice is, the work they do to protect the environment and Earth's future – one lawsuit at a time.

FCAT has been holding Zoom meetings since May 2020 and before that, in person meetings at the library since 2015.
