“If social workers want to see change and make a positive contribution to people’s lives, we need to practice in a way that is not only inclusive of an ecological justice perspective, but carries this understanding of peoples’ place in the natural environment at its heart.”

"Environmental issues are social issues and the hardest hit are the already vulnerable. The climate crisis is the leading cause for displacement. Issues such as food and water quality and insecurity, droughts, extreme weather, for example, are all human rights issues."

"I am passionate about climate change as I believe we are part of the environment, not separate from it. The current climate crisis affects not only the environment, but also humankind."
