In the climate crisis, Black communities continue to be hit first and hardest. Yet, Black people are underrepresented across most environmental and sustainability sectors. That’s why we recruit, retain, and inspire Black students, advocates, and professionals in environmental fields to ensure that Black communities have a stake in our environmental future.
