Episode 7: Innovation and Equity in the Climate Movement

Everyday Climate Champions

In this episode, we talk to high school student Aditi Anand, Sunrise Silicon Valley Hub Coordinator and Civics Unplugged Climate Innovators Fellow. She talks about her inspirations for social justice in the climate movement, as well as her focus on sustainable technologies that will help get us through this climate transition. We learn what climate liberation means, and how we can get involved in the same way that Aditi found her place.

Aditi says: “Climate justice is collective liberation. We cannot do this without everyone participating.”
