Seventh Generation interview on their blog


Being part of the climate justice movement often means rising against forces that may feel impossible to confront, whether it's the pervasive influence of the fossil fuel industry, misinformation about the validity of the threats to the people and the planet by government officials, or seeing the impacts of environmental racism in your community...


The team at Seventh Generation sat down with two leading voices in the environmental justice movement that embody climate action as radical care: John Beard, founder of the Port Arthur Community Action Network, an environmental and community rights organization in Port Arthur, Texas, and Tamara Toles O'Laughlin, founder of Climate Critical Earth, a support-based anti-racist and feminist environmental organization centering on care and repair.
