"'Environmental racism' is a crucial phrase, and it was actually born in eastern North Carolina as black people were resisting the placement of dumps and chemical sites," "This notion of valuing black and brown bodies less than white bodies." @mossvillefilm #Mossville #mossvilleproject #blacklandback #stolenblackland #blacklandbackcrusade #stopeminentdomain #blacklandtaken #undervaluedblackhomes

Climate justice cannot co-exist with settler colonialism and genocide. Climate justice cannot co-exist with the displacement and mass murder of indigenous people. No climate justice without a #FreePalestine

Those with agendas often aren't concerned about the consequences of their actions. When lives are lost, disrupted, or severely torn apart, it is important for others to stand up and fight back. #retaliation #politics #politicsandlaw #climatejustice #climatechange #fossilfuels

Environmental racism refers to the unequal distribution of environmental risks and hazards that disproportionately impact Black and Indigenous communities. This oppression is frequently ingrained within systemic structures, manifested through policies and practicesthat expose low-income and minority communities to detrimental environmental conditions. #climatechange #environment #indigenous #justice #black #ecosystem #biodiversity

Human activity is devastating every corner of the planet. We can end this war on nature by despising ignorance, greed, populist narratives, religious fundamentalism, human rights violations, discrimination and the loss of empathy and morality. The earth doesn't need barkers who only focus on their own ego. Furthermore people shouldn't believe in Santa Clause, they should actually do what Santa Clause is known for. #peace #greenroofs #solargardenroofs #biodiversity #pollution #stormwater #renewableenergy #climatecrisis #greenbuildings #humanityfirst #factsmatter #populism #foodsecurity #stayhealthy

Held on World Day of Social Justice, the conversation around climate justice still comes up inevitably, because the two are one. Grassroot communities are not only about affected parties, but strategic insights. There is a multiplicity of challenges arising from the climate crisis, and climate justice or injustice is just a symptom, a symptom of things like continous extractivism, colonialism and racism. It is time to deeply reflect on all these , and at times, taking a step back is actually taking two foward. #juststopoil #socialjustice #climatejustice #grassroots
