Climate Justice > Community Resources

Community Resources

While it is widely recognized that climate change disproportionately impacts vulnerable populations and there is growing support for equitable solutions, our communities still lack effective ways to incorporate equity and justice into the climate planning process. CEC envisions a climate-resilient future for everyone, particularly those at greatest risk or most socially and economically vulnerable.

We are increasing our efforts to meet that vision – and address climate threats and inequities – by actively collaborating with underrepresented voices in planning and implementing community-led solutions.
