Climate Justice Resources
People who have been marginalized by deeply-rooted systems of power, oppression, and inequality will be the most disproportionately burdened by climate change, are more sensitive to negative impacts, and have less access to the resources and institutional support needed to build more resilient communities. These groups traditionally have also had less voice in the decisions that shape our community.
We’re working to expand and deepen opportunities for underrepresented communities across the Central Coast to play a key role in planning and implementing climate solutions. Click on any of the links below to explore these resources.
