Welcome to Peekskill100
Mission Statement
To reduce carbon emissions in our city by 5% each year, support citywide environmental initiatives, work with local municipalities and environmental organizations to build communities that prioritize sustainability and make Peekskill a cleaner, healthier, and more resilient and just community.
Intersectional environmentalism is an inclusive movement and advocates for the protection of both people and the planet. It illustrates the link between social justice and environmentalism and how they work together to achieve environmental justice.
