Hawaii is on fire. Storms are wreaking havoc across the country. Record heat waves are endangering our livelihoods. And yet right-wing extremists are ignoring the climate crisis, and even working to make it worse for global sustainability and vulnerable communities.
The policies on the books right now—whether on cannabis or climate—are harming communities that face marginalization the most. We need action.
That’s why we’ve signed on to support Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s Cumulative Impacts Act, which would combat the environmental racism we’re watching unfold every single day. Support the Cumulative Impacts Act by adding your name today! >>
This legislation would make a huge difference for communities on the frontline of environmental racism—which are many of the same communities that have been targeted by the war on drugs.
And there’s more connecting cannabis and climate than you think—recent research by Hudson Carbon demonstrates that hemp can absorb CO2 from the atmosphere more than twice as effectively as trees![1] Each policy change we advocate for leads us towards a more innovative and equitable future.
Thank you for standing with us in our efforts to fight for environmental and cannabis justice.
With Gratitude,
