Anti-Racism & Environmental Justice Resources

Sustainable Seattle stands in solidarity with the Black community and pledges to call out and work to dismantle our inherently racist and oppressive systems until there is true justice and equity for all. We won’t solve climate change without properly addressing social justice. Climate justice is racial justice. Here is a growing list of resources to learn more about the intrinsic link between anti-racism work and environmental justice:

We would like to acknowledge that our work takes place on the traditional land of the Duwamish People, Suquamish, Stillaguamish, Muckleshoot, and many more Coast Salish Peoples, past and present, and honor with gratitude the land itself and the Coast Salish Tribes.

Sustainable Seattle encourages Seattle residents to support Duwamish Tribal Services by paying real rent to Real Rent Duwamish.
