DESCRIPTION:GWC Webinar Series: "The Climate Justice Lens is Here to Stay"\
 n\nAddressing climate change is the defining issue of our time\, and witho
 ut strategic action in the very near-term\, meaningful mitigation will bec
 ome more difficult\, expensive and elusive. Insufficient action will leave
  our most vulnerable populations facing the greatest risk. We are also liv
 ing in a defining moment\; the current social and political environment of
 fers the opportunity for transformative change. How that change proceeds h
 owever\, is paramount. Solutions must be developed and implemented in mann
 ers that will withstand inevitable legal challenges and shifts of politica
 l winds. \n\nThe severe impacts are unprecedented in both speed and scale.
  In addition to widespread recognition of the physical changes to the Eart
 h\, society is increasingly making the connection to the human toll. From 
 public lands and water management\, advancing clean energy development\, t
 o scaling up new energy technologies - truly sustainable solutions must in
 clude a lens that focuses on environmental\, social\, and climate justice.
   \n\nIn light of the pandemic\, we have reconfigured what would have been
  our Eighth Annual Clyde O. Martz Spring Symposium into a virtual series h
 eld throughout the Spring. We are convening diverse stakeholders to discus
 s how we can forge a path to a sustainable ­– and equitable ­– futur
 e. We will hear from leaders in the Biden Administration\, policymakers\, 
 Tribal leaders\, and NGOs.\n\nKeep an eye out for exciting additions to th
 is series!\n \n\nThe Water & Tribes Initiative:\nTribal Water Rights & a S
 ustainable Vision for the Colorado River Basin\n\nTuesday\, April 27\, 202

 tion\n\nThe 30 federally recognized tribes in the Colorado River Basin dep
 end on the Colorado and its tributaries for a variety of purposes\, includ
 ing cultural and religious activities\, domestic\, irrigation\, commercial
 \, municipal and industrial\, power generation\, recreation\, instream flo
 ws\, wildlife\, and habitat restoration. Twenty-two of these tribes have r
 ecognized rights to use 3.2 million-acre feet of Colorado River system wat
 er annually\, or approximately 25 percent of the Basin’s average annual 
 water supply.  In addition\, 12 of the tribes have unresolved water rights
  claims\, which will likely increase the overall volume of tribal water ri
 ghts in the Basin. With the oldest water rights in the basin\, tribes are 
 poised to play a significant role in balancing water demand and supply and
  otherwise shaping the future of the region. Join leaders of the Water & T
 ribes Initiative in a conversation about the role of tribes and other sove
 reigns and stakeholders in advancing a sustainable vision for the Colorado
  River.\n\nFeaturing\n​​​​​​\nBidtah Becker\, Navajo Tribal Ut
