The environmental justice and climate justice movements have differing histories and trajectories. One of the promising developments in recent years is a growing alignment between the two movements and recognition of how the previous struggles over environmental justice contribute to the climate justice movement. This chapter describes the driving forces behind the development of the environmental justice movement, including history, goals, and outcomes. It also links the environmental justice movement to current climate advocacy efforts and the most promising forms of practicing climate justice in the contemporary era.
