When Marisol Becerra was a little girl, she thought that the huge smokestacks in her community, Chicago’s “Little Village,” were a “Cloud Factory.” Years later, as she watched her younger sister Brenda suffer from Asthma, she realized that the Cloud Factory is a coal burning power plant.

They mobilized youth to educate the people of Little Village to take action and demand change to close the Cloud Factory once and for all.
