In this week’s Climate Justice newsletter, we explore the connections between identity and climate. First, frontline communities of color may be missing an opportunity when it comes to grassroots clean energy production. Next, in Appalachia, lawmakers continue to erode queer rights alongside the destruction of the environment. What would it mean to view the region with a queer ecological lens? Then, books acknowledging the climate crisis are being banned and censored, along with books that feature queer narratives or characters of color. What do writers of these banned books have to say? Finally, how can funders, nonprofit leaders, philanthropists, and others support the youngest generations of climate justice leaders? Join the free NPQ webinar “Youth Speak: What Young Climate Justice Leaders Need Now” on November 6 at 1:00 pm ET.
