We’re “keeping the climate cool” by starting creative climate conversations in East Texas - between the biodiverse “Big Thicket” and the petrochemical industry.
Climate Justice Texas (501c4 ) and Climate Justice Texas Community (nonpartisan 501c3) are youth-focused nonprofit organizations rooted in the unique communities, biodiversity, and energy economies of East Texas. We build bridges and create inclusive spaces to have open conversations about our environment, the unique challenges that we face, and how to preserve our region for future generations.
Our organizational pillars and collaborative, grassroots-up approach — at the heart of the energy economy of the United States, where the Spindletop gusher first struck oil and the last remnants the “Big Thicket” of East Texas remain.
