As the world continues to run out of clean air, water and spaces, it is the poor, women, people of colour, and people of the global South who first experience the consequences. The profession of social work is well poised to advocate preventive and prescriptive environmental measures in partnership with the communities in question. An analysis of power, along with an appreciation for the unique constraints of gender, race and geography, is instrumental for the articulation of environmental threats and eco-sustainable solutions. Ecological justice opens up an exciting space where social work has much to contribute, and much to gain. |
