** Climate Justice
------------------------------------------------------------
As climate change intensifies, some governmental safety nets are no longer providing the aid needed to prevent or recover from natural disasters. In this week’s Climate Justice newsletter, we look at how communities are pushing back. First, heat is the number one killer climate event, and wildfire smoke can lead to dire health outcomes. Why doesn’t FEMA respond ([link removed]) ? Next, reinforcing and restoring longstanding community practices can advance a just transition to a solidarity economy ([link removed]) . Then, climate justice is not an isolated issue, and community-based solutions ([link removed]) must reach beyond a singular focus. Finally, in the “environmental sacrifice zone
([link removed]) ” of Pueblo, CO, a grassroots campaign is changing the community’s environmental and health trajectory.
