Intersectional Environmentalism Resources

We can never have a fully sustainability future if we don’t have social justice. To practice environmentalism, we must address systemic racism and its effects on environmental policy and practice.

This website contains educational resources on intersectional environmentalism. However, we encourage you to learn about and donate to non-environmental Black organizations, bail funds, and protest supply funds as well.
