Ecological Justice
Introduction
Biodiversity loss has one of the most clear connections to the climate crisis with many species either dying out or having to migrate due to their habitat being destroyed.
Ecological justice month covers the effects of climate breakdown on our natural environment, whether this be biodiversity loss, wildfires and their effect on both human and non human species or the negative impacts of factory farming.
Outlined in this pack are a few ideas and resources to help get your action planning juices flowing and give you some inspiration for actions you can do in your local area.
To achieve our goal of mass mobilisation, we need everyone, we need you.
These Ideas are only suggestions and we encourage you to think about what affects your local community and how you can tie in your existing campaigns.
Potential Targets & Action Ideas
Flooding
Flooding not only impacts humans but also causes loss of habitat for non-human animals.
Agriculture and Food Production
Agriculture and food production contribute to climate breakdown in many ways and the current mass production culture is contributing to the loss of work for many local farmers.
Dirty Water
The continued pollution of our waterways affects not only us but also many of the waterborne species in our rivers.
Rebellious Rewilding
Rebel rewilding is a great way to have a direct impact on your life and your local community.

Wildfires
Wildfires will continue to blaze as global temperatures increase. Though it may be hard to have a direct impact, even sharing information about wildfires on social media can be a great way to educate others.
Heat
The rise in temperatures affects everyone, especially those most vulnerable in our society and the natural environment.
