Our Misssion

Why Black and Brown empowerment is key to combatting climate change?

For every 5 African Americans 3 live near a toxic waste facility. African Americans suffer 56% more pollution than White Americans while Hispanic Americans 64% more than White Americans also. However, only 2.8% of African Americans graduate with a degree in the environmental field. As for related fields like economics is only 2% and urban studies at less than 5%. Meanwhile black and brown communities suffer the most from climate disasters on average.
