We the People Are More Powerful than We Dare to Believe: First Steps in Dismantling Corporate Rule
Lecturer: Paul Cienfuegos
(Sponsored locally by CES, Citizens for Environmental Stewardship)
Community Rights are about the inherent right of a local majority of residents to protect the health and welfare of their local communities. This can apply to:
- land use and property values
- water protection
- air quality
More than 160 communities have passed legally binding, locally enforceable ordinances – each of which defines what the community wants, reins in corporate so-called “rights,” and stops legal but harmful corporate activity dead in its tracks.
