Linked with ecology offers opportunities to work toward ‘environmental justice’ and ‘just sustainability’ through examination of such issues as environmental racism, Indigenous and human rights violations in an unequal world, meeting the needs of current and future generations, improving well-being and quality of life, questioning the notion of ‘growth’ on a finite planet, and moving beyond theorizing to engagement and action.”
