What is an intersectional environmentalist?

Intersectional environmentalism is a growing movement – but what exactly is it? And why is it vital? Leah Thomas aka Intersectional Environmentalist joins TEDxLondon’s Climate Curious to share the ways in which identity, race, class and gender impacts everyone’s experience with the natural world around you. And how it helps us dismantle systems of oppression to protect people and planet. Tune in with Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst live from TED Countdown to discover which social justice movement inspired Leah to write her debut novel, why being an black, female influencer is weaponised against her, and how she’s making environmental education accessible to all.
