WE STAND FOR JUSTICE

We are outraged by the murders of Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color whose lives have been stolen at the hands of systemic racism, police brutality, injustice, and White supremacy and privilege. The B Corp Climate Collective stands firmly in solidarity with marginalized communities around the world and reaffirms our belief that climate action and advocacy must be firmly rooted in racial justice and equity.

In recent weeks, hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets around the world in a collective expression of outrage, grief, and frustration. They are raising their voices to demand meaningful, structural change to address the systemic inequities, violence, and racism that stand between us and our hopes for a regenerative and prosperous planet.

The global nature of the current and recent protests underscores that the issues underlying recent events have deep roots in slavery, colonialism, and imperialism - and highlights that we are all connected in a fully interdependent world. Without acknowledging and working to rectify these inequities as we work to solve the climate crisis, we will never realize a truly sustainable future for all.
