Overview

If you read a newspaper, turn on the news, or scroll through social media, it’s clear the environment’s on everyone’s minds. Climate change is happening and people are nervous. But while a warming planet will affect everyone, the biggest polluters won’t necessarily experience the greatest impact. In fact, poorer, more vulnerable communities are likely to be hit the hardest, in the long run.

Environmental issues and social injustice are intricately linked. From economic inequality to resource access, some people face a far worse situation as the climate changes. That’s why it’s important to look at the impact your organisation is having. By committing to better environmental choices, the company you work for can make a difference. This course will show you how.

• Recognise the impact your organisation’s current business practices has on social injustice, through its contribution to environmental issues
