July is Climate Justice and Environmental Justice July!
From the placement of landfills to the impacts of extreme weather events, it is apparent that climate change and other environmental issues disproportionately and unjustly affect communities of color and low-income neighborhoods, worsening existing health disparities and overall wellness and wealth-building. We challenge our sustainability network to educate ourselves on the importance of climate justice and environmental justice and how we can all further these movements.
