Climate Justice at the Intersections

via Feministing

There are so many incredible people doing activism these days about climate change. I’m especially excited about those acting at the intersections of racism, classism, health issues, and the environment, like Van Jones and Majora Carter. Check out this great video profile of Kari Fulton, Brower youth Award Winner and general badass.

Knowing that Kari and so many others like her exist make me feel safer and happier. I can almost imagine this huge generation of new, savvy environmental activists coming up under folks like Majora and Van. Wahoooo!

And don’t miss out on other great video profiles over at the Environmental Justice and Climate Change Initiative.
