Climate Justice

In this week’s Climate Justice newsletter, we look to the children. First, the story of four Indigenous children who survived alone for over a month before being rescued in the Amazon jungle after a plane crash in the summer of 2023. With a story that exemplifies community-centered child development, something global policy often diminishes rather than supports, can the children’s survival shape how we understand early childhood development? Next, more than 50 schools across the United States have partnered with the youth-led climate justice collective, the Sunrise Movement, to fight for a Green New Deal for Schools. Youth want their schools to teach climate justice, provide vocational training for the green jobs of the future, and have plans in place for climate disasters. Then, FireGeneration is working to involve more young people in wildfire conservation. The group, which supports controlled burns, was partly formed to preserve Indigenous knowledge after cultural burns were outlawed. Finally, our fall climate justice issue of the magazine is out now.
