Climate Justice Now!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Climate Justice Now![1] (CJN!) is a global coalition of networks and organizations campaigning for climate justice.[2]

The coalition was founded at the 2007 UNFCCC meeting in Bali, and has since mobilised for UNFCCC meetings in Bangkok, Copenhagen and Cancun.

Climate Justice Now (CJN) is a global network of organizations and movements advocating for climate justice. The website serves as a platform for sharing information, resources, and actions related to addressing the climate crisis from a justice-oriented perspective. CJN emphasizes the disproportionate impact of climate change on marginalized communities and advocates for solutions that prioritize equity, human rights, and sustainability. The organization works to amplify the voices of frontline communities, promote grassroots activism, and hold governments and corporations accountable for their role in exacerbating the climate crisis.[3]
