here are two new action tracks from this year:
ACTION TRACK: JUSTICE FOR THE WHOLE COMMUNITY
Just and equitable systems are essential to a sustainable world. Ecochallengers who participated in The People's Ecochallenge chose actions from this action track to learn more about how they can impact larger systems and take action toward sustainability for our whole human community. Some example actions are:
- offset for climate justice
- watch a documentary about racial injustice
- research voter suppression
- support businesses owned by folks of color
- support native communities
- learn about trans, femme, and nonbinary experiences
- advocate for green spaces
- and more.
ACTION TRACK: HEALING & RENEWAL
Now more than ever we need to create space where we can nurture the healing and renewal of ourselves, our loved ones, community, and planet. Working for justice, equity, and the environment is physically and mentally demanding work. To sustain these social and environmental movements we need time to reflect and practice self-care. Some example actions in this action track are:
- determine my core values
- nurture self-compassion
- prioritize joyful movement
- practice gratitude for earth
- invest in happiness
- practice forgiveness
- research restorative justice
- and more.
