Synopsis

  • This video from Grist explains the concept of environmental justice using an example of a made-up city full of people of different races, ethnicities, income levels, and languages to illustrate real-life inequities.
  • It also connects climate justice with social justice with an example of small island nations that suffer extreme effects of climate change even though they have not contributed much to the problem historically.
