About This Collection

Reframing climate change to climate justice affords us the opportunity to view climate change science through the lens of environmental, social and economic justice and understand that global warming is an ethical and moral issue.  A major proposition of climate justice is that those who are least responsible for climate change suffer its gravest consequences.

The purpose of this collection is to draw your attention to the many voices of climate justice to educate and inspire you.  Of particular note, "Faith communities carrying this message (of climate justice) are potentially powerful voices on climate change – voices that have been largely silent on the issue until recently."   

EarthSayers.tv has also started a Web collection, here as a blog, on Faith and Climate Justice.

2025 Goldman Prize Winners Carlos Mallo Molina and Laurene Allen Live With Climate One

As part of SF Climate Week, Climate One was honored to host two of the 2025 Goldman Environmental Prize winners in an intimate conversation at the Commonwealth Club. These inspiring leaders each bring a deeply heroic story of protecting their community against powerful interests. ​Join Climate One Co-Host Greg Dalton in conversation with Laurene Allen and Carlos Mallo Molina as we explore what compels a few ordinary people to take extraordinary actions to protect our planet — often at great personal risk.

​Carlos Mallo Molina led a global campaign to stop the construction of Fonsalía Port, which was officially canceled by the Canary Islands government in October 2021. The massive recreational boat and ferry terminal threatened a 170,000-acre marine protected area on the island of Tenerife, home to sea turtles, whales, and sharks. Now he is now realizing his vision for a world-class marine conservation and education center.

​Laurene Allen protected thousands of New England families affected by PFAS-contaminated drinking water. Her campaign pressured an industrial giant—responsible for leaking toxic forever chemicals into community drinking water sources—to close in May 2024, marking an end to more than 20 years of rampant air, soil, and water pollution.
