Climate change has caused job losses and cutbacks across a number of industries, including farming, landscaping, insurance, and energy. We need to demand better policies to protect the jobs and livelihoods for these workers.
Drought in California is only getting worse. If we continue to use water at our current rate, millions of Californians risk losing access to safe, reliable water in the near future.
Toxic and polluting factories, like coal-fired power plants, are predominately placed in communities of color and release lead and other contaminants into the water, food, and air. It is time to fight this injustice and demand that these polluters either shut down or clean up their act.
Our climate is rapidly getting hotter and drier, and many families lack access to air conditioning or other ways of staying cool. African Americans are twice as likely to die during heatwaves than non-Hispanic whites in California.
Climate change is making energy costs higher and more volatile, and communities of color spend a
higher proportion of their income on energy costs, which can quickly become unaffordable. We need
to act today to ensure affordable and reliable access to energy for all Californians.
The new clean energy economy and the transition to renewable energy is an opportunity to address
past injustices for people of color. We must act now to ensure jobs and equitable treatment for
African Americans in the new green economy.
Responses to climate change worsen disparities because wealthier people flee climate-vulnerable
areas to gentrify other neighborhoods, which prices out existing community members. We need
more affordable housing and tenant protections to protect vulnerable communities across the state
from this “climate gentrification”.
Climate change has had a severe negative impact on California's agriculture industry, reducing the
amount of food produced locally, meaning less access to fresh fruit, vegetables, and other foods for
lower-income communities.
