We created this resource to contextualize the climate crisis as a diverse and intersectional issue that extends beyond matters of the environment. We noticed that the many connections between social and climate justice were often talked about in passing, but not always explained. As a result of this, we wanted to offer a starting point for folks to explore what it really means when we say "climate justice is social justice."

🔎 Research
Our team has drawn knowledge from both academic sources and community wisdom to craft the research portion of our project. A brief overview is provided on how various social justice issues intersect with climate justice. Alongside this, is a selection of further resources to read / watch / listen / explore depending on your preferred learning style. |
📖 Storytelling
Facts and statistics are important, but humanizing justice-centred issues helps folks emotionally connect with the lived experiences of others. Through the process of community outreach, we set out to engage with and amplify the voices of local changemakers who are doing incredible work. Excerpts from these conversations are included under each topic! |
📣 Take Action
Educating ourselves about injustice is crucial in building solidarity and capacity for collective liberation. This section aims to bridge the gap between learning and action by offering both a localized and broader approach to how you can get involved in shaping more just communities. |
