The world faces some of the most dire and existential environmental threats in human history, from unchecked corporate pollution to climate change. Regrettably, politics here and across the world are becoming deeply divided, and increasingly the answer for some is to turn to violence. When lives are at risk, do advocates have an obligation to fight fair? If so, how do we engage in conflict constructively without sacrificing power? If not, are there lines that can't be crossed, and how do you determine where they are? 

Please join us for an engaging conversation with Conan Smith, President & CEO of the Michigan Environmental Council.
