The Connection Between Social and Environmental Justice

July 27, 2019 Angela Brown Fashion Institute of Technology

As the impacts of climate change intensify and disproportionately impact vulnerable and marginalized populations, it has become increasingly harder to ignore just how interconnected issues of social and environmental justice are, and how consequential they have become.  Climate change not only impacts the environment but the economic and social realms of human life as well. This blog post highlights a few resources that bring together perspectives from environmental, social, and economic justice lenses, and offer insights that bridge these three critical aspects of sustainability.
