How the climate crisis is worsening inequality

The climate emergency will continue to bring fire, floods, and extreme weather events all across the world— but not everyone is going to be affected in the same way.

Communities that are white and wealthier are conventionally better resourced to deal with the ramifications of an increasingly unstable climate, while poorer communities, who often face overlapping crises will be left more vulnerable.

Jacob speaks with Grace Vegesana, the Climate & Racial Justice Director at the Australian Youth Climate Coalition, and Lia Mai Torres, the Executive Director of the Center for Environmental Concerns Philippines, about the intersectional impacts of climate change.
