The work of 22 Latino/a/x organizations, the LCJF is a comprehensive framework for addressing the climate crisis and serving the needs of Latino/a/x communities across the country. This framework provides a blueprint for our partners to advocate on behalf of our communities.
About The Report
Latino Climate Justice Framework
Our comunidades across the country need climate solutions that will mobilize the massive investments necessary to mitigate, prepare for and prevent the devastating impacts of the climate crisis. The framework presented in this report builds upon the significant work of frontline climate and environmental justice leaders to highlight disproportionate impacts on Latino/a/x communities and help ensure our priorities are included, elevated, and protected.
01
The Path to Energy, Environmental and Economic Justice
The reality is that Latino/a/x communities in this country bear the brunt of climate, water and air pollution. It’s time for us to trade in practices that extract from Madre Tierra – producing pollution that harms us all – for clean, renewable alternatives that harness the natural energy of the planet, allowing us all to breathe easier while creating millions of jobs.

02
Protecting Vulnerable Communities from the Climate Crisis
Latino/a/xs in the U.S. and abroad live on the frontlines of the climate crisis, threatened by destructive weather events and heavily represented in outdoor jobs. While we transition away from fossil fuels and into a clean energy future, it is critical that we support our communities by providing climate-resilient infrastructure addressing the risks associated with the climate crisis now.
03
Providing Equitable Access and Representation
Just solutions to our climate crisis must move beyond a decarbonization-only approach, account for economic disparities, and ensure that deeply vulnerable groups from our communities, such as migrants, farmworkers, and frontline workers, are included in policy strategies to grow economic opportunity. Providing language access at every level and structure of government is one crucial component for Latino/a/xs to be included in decision-making processes.
