ECOLESBIANISM (NO PLANET, NO LESBIANS)

The climate crisis concerns us all, but we do not all contribute equally to it. And we are not all equally affected by its impacts. In most cases, LBTI women* and people with lower incomes as well as people from the Global South and Global East suffer more from the consequences of the climate crisis. When it comes to eco activism, queer folks have been making significant contributions to the climate justice movement since Rachel Carson, a lesbian, who wrote Silent Spring. In this session, we will create a climate justice toolkit for lesbians.
