Climate Justice

This month’s Climate Justice newsletter highlights the power and importance of climate and environmental justice organizing. We begin with Lew Daly’s piece on the Biden administration’s Justice40 climate initiative, whose success depends on “organized grassroots engagement” by climate justice activists and local communities. We continue with Connor Gibson’s article on the efforts of police organizations and fossil fuel companies to limit protest, including pipeline demonstrations, which is a testament to the power of collective protest to change the status quo. Next, we revisit an article by Steve Dubb, who traces the impact of student activism on fossil fuel divestment and the ongoing need for “a climate action army” to spur transformational systemic and cultural change. Finally, we announce NPQ’s new job posting for a Climate Justice Senior Editor!
