NN Webinar: What has climate change got to do with racial justice?

Near Neighbours is a partner with Church Urban Fund

Near Neighbours

This NN Network webinar will feature Jeremy Williams, author and campaigner, and focus on the link between racism and climate destruction.

Climate change and racism are two of the big challenges of our time, and they are connected: it is majority white countries that have historically caused the most damage to the climate, while it is people of colour who face the biggest risks from climate breakdown. Drawing on his book, Climate Change is Racist: Race, Privilege and the Struggle for Climate Justice, Jeremy will look at the roots of this injustice, and what it means for us today as we work for a fairer, more sustainable world. Jeremy Williams is a writer and activist for environmental and social justice. He is the author of Climate Change is Racist: Race, Privilege and the Struggle for Climate Justice (Icon Books, 2021), and writes The Earthbound Report, twice recognised as Britain&#x27;s leading green blog. He grew up in Madagascar and Kenya, and now lives in Luton, UK.
