Climate Justice

Solutions for climate change can and must come from all corners, and in this week’s Climate Justice newsletter, we turn to unlikely sources for help in the crisis. First, the public library, a bastion in the fight for free speech, is increasingly taking on a different and larger role. As climate disasters escalate across the United States, public libraries are becoming safe havens and shelters, but are librarians equipped to take on the responsibilities of social services? Next, Colorado has announced a plan to re-introduce wolves into the state. The keystone predators help make an ecosystem healthy, but wolves are also an unexpected ally in the fight against climate change: they can help combat its effects. Then, another community has started to mobilize against the climate crisis: outdoor sports, as nonprofits like Protect Our Winters are organizing outdoor sports enthusiasts for climate justice, including supporting climate policy. Finally, our fall climate justice issue of the magazine looks to creative writers, among others, to visualize climate change solutions through powerfully imaginative—and hopeful—stories.
