The climate crisis is terrifying. We’re all constantly dealing with the anxiety of that reality. In my struggles with climate anxiety, I’ve come to find that the only thing that really helps is taking action. But how do we take action on a problem that feels so big? The good news is that taking action locally can actually have dramatic positive impacts. Which is where the Intersectional Environmentalist Database comes in. We’ve compiled a central hub for 500 incredible grassroots environmental justice organizations across the US. You can search by location, cause, identity, and topic to find organizations fighting for everything from environmental justice in frontline communities to sustainable solutions led by Indigenous voices. Please check it out, donate your time or resources to a cause you care about, and tackle those feelings of doom with hope directly from the people around you! What orgs should we add next? #Intersectionalenvironmentalism #volunteer #Empowerment #EJforAll #Local #ClimateJustice #Grassroots #Changemaker #Sustainable #CommunityCare #environmentalism #connection

Indigenous Peoples' Day is more than just a one-day event. It's a reminder to continuously advocate for Indigenous rights and support Indigenous communities. As someone who believes in creating inclusive spaces where everyone feels safe and welcome, I want to share some actions we can take to make a difference: 1. Educate ourselves and our communities about the history, culture, and experiences of Indigenous people. 2. Use our platforms to amplify Indigenous voices and stories. 3. Actively listen to and support Indigenous-led movements and initiatives. Remember, inclusion, social justice, and equality are not trends. They are vital efforts that require our continued attention and dedication. Let's work together to create a world where Indigenous people can thrive and be honored for their unique, beautiful cultures, contributions, and perspectives. . . . .

Gilbert Baker knew it in 1978 and we know it now: Climate justice and LGBTQIA liberation are inextricable. 🌈 How are you taking your Pride outside this month? Let us know in the comments! #QueersForClimate #NatureIsQueer #ClimateAction #ClimateJustice #PrideFlag #GilbertBaker

🌈 Reflecting on Pride Month: A Commitment to Justice for All 🌍 As Pride Month comes to a close, we at GreenRoots celebrate the resilience, strength, and joy of the LGBTQ community. Our mission to foster environmental justice is deeply intertwined with the fight for all forms of social justice. We recognize that environmental challenges disproportionately affect marginalized communities, including our LGBTQ neighbors. LGBTQ individuals, particularly those of color, often face the dual burdens of environmental racism and societal discrimination. These intersecting oppressions exacerbate vulnerabilities and create barriers to health, safety, and well-being. This Pride Month, we reaffirm our commitment to addressing these inequities. We aim to amplify the voices of LGBTQ individuals in our fight against environmental injustices and to create inclusive spaces where everyone, regardless of their identity, can thrive. Let's continue to push for a world where justice and equity are at the heart of environmental advocacy. We stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ community today and every day. Happy Pride, and here's to a future where every voice is heard and every person is valued. 🌿💚.
