Female Environmental Activists

Join Sandra Uve, an illustrator, communicator, and writer, as she leads a discussion about the significant contributions women have made in environmental activism worldwide. This event will shed light on figures such as Eunice Newton Foote, whose discoveries on the effects of carbon dioxide were groundbreaking, Gladys del Estal, known for her anti-nuclear protests, and Sylvia Earle, who launched the mission 'Mission Blue' to protect ocean ecosystems. Despite their profound impact, these women have often remained unsung heroes in the narrative of environmental movements. The presentation will provide insights into their struggles and triumphs, demonstrating the vital roles women have played in advocating for our planet's health and sustainability.
