Climate change impacts our natural environment, but it’s also a racial justice issue. Communities of color in the US and globally are impacted first and worst by flooding, heat, and pollution. That’s why environmental justice advocates from these communities in South Carolina are working toward solutions—from monitoring the water in their neighborhoods to lobbying their local legislators.

So, is it possible to be civically engaged outside of formal activities? Citizen Better will follow KJ Kearney as he finds the ‘informal’ ways to be civically engaged in everyday life so that viewers can feel empowered to make a meaningful impact on the reg rather than just on election days. Like shoes, one size does not fit all, “trying on” various types of informal civic engagement KJ will find what pairs suit him to make a footprint in our democracy.
