The Energy Justice Network empowers grassroots efforts through various tools including community organizing support and advice, student organizing, network-building, research on corporations, policies and technologies, limited legal and technical guidance, and our mapping project.
Energy Justice Network goes beyond the demands of the traditional state and national environmental groups. We understand that energy issues have profound impacts on many other environmental issues from agriculture to waste, and recognize that low-income communities and communities of color tend to be the most seriously impacted by polluting energy systems. We support a comprehensive, environmental justice approach. Read more about Energy & Environmental Justice.
Energy Justice is the first national organization to advocate a complete phase-out of nuclear power, fossil fuels, large hydroelectric dams and “biomass” / incineration within the next 20 years. We believe that this is possible, affordable and absolutely necessary. What is holding us back is only a lack of political will.
Take 2 minutes to report when and where you see recycling and trash being collected. All data collected will be used to document the extent of the problem and hold the city accountable.
The Streets Department is denying that they’re ordering sanitation workers to trash recycling, and claims they have no records on how often this is happening. To get any real enforcement of the state’s recycling law, we need to document these violations.
