Most advocates recognize that labor transitions play a crucial role in conversations about climate justice. However, the question remains: How can we create a future that builds upon the strengths of labor and environmental justice to achieve a just climate future for everyone? In this episode, we speak with Jeff Johnson, former President of the Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO, and current board member of the Labor Network for Sustainability. Jeff shares his insights into the impact of the climate crisis on workers, the shared values between labor and climate justice movements, and how we can develop climate policies that benefit both workers and communities.
