About Us
We’re a small team with big ideas
We’re a small women-led team passionate about a more sustainable city for all. We began Climate Action LAb because we understand how now, more than ever, social media plays a pivotal role in spreading awareness about environmental and social justice movements. By amplifying voices, rallying folks under the same cause, and shining a light on the intersection of climate and equity, we aim to inspire youth to take action in their communities.
