Dear Friend,

In our newest magazine issue, we explore the challenges and victories that workers face today, which are iterations on justice and equity issues from the past.

We delve into the power of collective action, the potential of a just transition when it comes to climate solutions, the challenges of facing profit-driven corporations, and the tragedy of kids working dangerous jobs.

Green America’s labor campaigns director, Jean Tong, reminds us not to forget that each worker we meet in these pages or hear about on the news is a member of a community—maybe yours.

As we support a local union or call for better safety standards, we lift up our communities. As we build greener, more just workplaces, we make our cities, towns, and country stronger, too.

Donate today to support our work to make a just, inclusive economy, one that works for all, and get a one-year subscription to our Green American magazine, including our guide to Your Green Life. 

Plus we'll thank you with a free "I am a Green American" compact tote — made from 100% recycled water bottles.  

Here are a few articles from this issue you don't want to miss: 

  • "4 Ways to Make Your Job Work for Climate and Social Justice": You can make a difference on climate and justice from where you are—no career switch necessary.
  • Racism, harsh immigration policies, and exploitation are leading to increased child labor in the US and it's time to fight for all kids. Read "Child Labor Has Always Been Here, Now It's on the Rise."
  • Can the 4-Day Work Week Heal People and the Planet?” For reducing burnout and greenhouse gas emissions—the four-day work week could be the key.
  • With her colleagues at Amazon, Anna Ortega is trying to make the corporation a better place to work—for the health of individuals and the community. Read Anna's story, "My Life as an Amazon Worker and Organizer." 

Let this issue inspire you— please join Green America for as little as $15 today! And when you do, we will send you our compact tote, made from 100% recycled water bottles. 

Together, we are building a stronger, greener, more equitable future for the generations to come. 

Together, we are powerful,
