Episode 34: What Justice Means in Environmental Action Civics
We’re talking about how environmental justice is one of the roots of Environmental Action Civics! We believe that everyone has the right to live in a safe environment and deserves to be included in the decision making that affects their community. In this episode, we talk through the ways justice shows up in the EAC Process.
6:48 – How does justice tie into EAC?
9:02 – How a justice lens helps students start with research/data instead of beginning with a solution or project
11:45 – Why young people are considered citizens now, rather than when they turn 18
