A Conversation on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice
In the July meeting, we will focus our advocacy effort on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice (DEIJ). Environmental justice & protecting our democracy are two the five pillars of advocacy at the Climate Reality Project. The Climate Reality Project and all of its local chapter have realized that there will be no climate justice without racial justice. Therefore, we have plan a conversation on how to commit ourselves to racial justice, so that our effort and advocacy in environmental justice is rooted in the needs of those who have been disproportionally impacted by the climate crisis.

Climate Justice: Changing the Narrative of Climate Change and Racism
Climate justice is the most important issue of our generation for many reasons. Racism, colonization, ecological devastation are interwoven in every aspect of the climate crisis and our lives. The climate crisis is a threat multiplier, and it has been disproportionally impacting communities of color. It is crucial to engage frontline communities, and youth to ensure climate actions and solutions really address the needs from these communities.
