The Green L.A. Transportation Working Group meets monthly on the second tuesday of each month from 2pm to 4pm. We often meet at the Coalition for Clean Air in downtown Los Angeles (but we sometimes move around – so check first – email info below.)
GLATWG works to bring together various environmental and environmental justice organizations that work on transportation issues. Some organizations involved in the past year have included: the Bus Riders Union, CalPIRG (California Public Interest Research Group,) the Coalition for Clean Air, Cyclists Inciting Change thru Live Exchange (C.I.C.L.E.), Environment Now, Illuminate L.A., L.A. County Bicycle Coalition, L.A. Walks, the Angeles Chapter of the Sierra Club, the Transit Coalition, and the Urban and Environmental Policy Institute.
Our focus is on changing policies in the City of Los Angeles, though we sometimes work on broader issues that impact L.A. As of December 2009, the committee is co-chaired by Dorothy Le and Jerard Wright, and staffed by Serena Lin and Stephanie Taylor.
