Governments Taking on Energy Justice

What’s happening? The Us Department of Energy has added a position singularly focused on energy justice.

Why is this important? We’re hearing more and more about energy justice. The focus for the Department of Energy will be on social, economic, and health burdens within U.S. energy system.

How will this be important? higher utility bills, heightened susceptibility to pollution, and increased vulnerability to natural disasters disproportionately impacts communities of color.
