School Board races may seem far from the climate fight, but let us tell you: these local races in places the fossil fuel industry *thinks* they have under lock and key are 𝘵𝘩𝘦 climate battleground.
Ohio is among several Appalachian states whose land is being pilfered in pursuit of dirty energy. Fracking has exploded in the Buckeye State, with drilling happening even on its public lands, including the largest state park —Salt Fork.
Breaking the stranglehold Big Oil has in places like Ohio is the key. That’s why our team works to find the races in communities with a lot on the line in the climate fight — like PJ Errera’s race for Kent School Board.
Running in a small school district just outside of Cleveland, PJ is committed to promoting science-based climate education, as well as programs in sustainable agriculture and renewable energy. His top priority is to conduct a comprehensive energy audit in the district, aiming to boost efficiency and sustainability across Kent’s 7 schools. Passionately anti-fracking in a state where fracking looms large, we know PJ will bring his forward-thinking vision to the Kent schools.
You can help build a more sustainable future for Ohio’s students by supporting PJ! Even $25 can be the difference in a local race like this one. And the best part? Big Oil wishes you’d never heard of PJ, or Kent, Ohio.
