In honor of Earth Day, the Partnership for a Green City and the editors of Global Connections, a JCPS newsletter, asked community leaders to share their ideas, experiences and environmental perspectives with readers. Ma'isah Edwards, MPH student, and LaTonia Peters, MPH coordinator, were invited to submit messages along with Gov. Steve Beshear, Mayor Jerry Abramson, Dr. James Ramsey and many others.
