Intersectional environmentalism is the link between climate justice and social justice. We cannot advocate for one without the other. It seeks to identify the interconnection of how injustices impact vulnerable communities and the earth. The movement was started by Black People, Indigenous People, and People of Color. How can you do your part? Diversify your news, where you get your opinions, and your social media feeds.

Our Anti-Racism and Inclusion Statement
Serve only clients who share our values and our commitment towards BIPOC communities.
Engage in the difficult conversations. Whether that be in person or on a sales call. If a skeptical comment or action is made, call it out, be confident to mark your stance and to share where your values lie.
Add a clause into our contracts that allows us to step away from a difficult client who exhibits problematic behaviors or comments.
Be bold and be vocal. Share your stance in your marketing, website, social media, and communication materials.
Listen, learn, and lead. We vow to sit back and listen to the voices that need to be heard, to learn from BIPOC educators, influencers, and leaders who have done the work, and to lead by sharing their call for equality and justice. Silence is not an option.
