Join us in the RSA Great Room for an inspiring and urgent exploration of how social justice holds the key to environmental sustainability.

Tony Juniper and Mya-Rose Craig bring together two powerful perspectives on the interconnectedness of equity and the environment. Tony, an esteemed environmentalist and author, draws on decades of experience advocating for a balance between human needs and ecological preservation. His work demonstrates how fairness - whether in resource distribution, climate justice, or community empowerment - is essential for achieving lasting ecological progress.

Mya-Rose Craig, also known as 'Birdgirl', amplifies the voices of young people and underrepresented communities in the fight against environmental degradation. As a prominent advocate for diversity in nature conservation, she underscores the necessity of inclusive action - ensuring that all communities, especially those most impacted by environmental challenges, are part of the solution.

Together, Tony and Mya-Rose offer a compelling vision for how equity can drive environmental change, providing both practical insights and inspirational calls to action for a fairer, greener planet. Let’s reimagine a future where fairness drives global sustainability.

Speakers:

  • Tony Juniper, Environmentalist, author
