Eco-Justice

Eco-justice is the concept that emphasizes the interconnectedness of environmental health and social equity. It asserts that everyone, regardless of their background, has the right to a clean, safe environment and access to natural resources. Eco-justice advocates recognize that marginalized communities often face the greatest environmental challenges, such as pollution and climate change impacts. Therefore, achieving eco-justice involves addressing both ecological sustainability and social inequalities, ensuring fair treatment and participation for all people in environmental decision-making, and working towards a healthier planet and society for future generations.
