Can we solve the climate crisis without confronting global inequities?
A recent study in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA found that white residents in the USA produce more climate pollution than black or hispanic residents, but black and hispanic people are exposed to more air pollution.
And that is just the USA! Think about the global inequities in the "haves" and the "have nots".
And how are we going to lift people out of poverty without making the climate crisis even worse?
If you are a resident in a wealthy country, is it your responsibility to address both problems at once? And what would that look like in terms of national and international policy?

We need to care for our environment
Each year we keep getting less and less snow on the east coast and places that don’t normally get snow are just getting more and more. While the west coast is getting batterd with their biggest snow year ever we are having a very underwhelming snow season. This is because of climate change and its causing us to not be able to ski.
