SPOTLIGHT on Queers x Climate and Out for Sustainability

There is a lot of resilience and knowledge within different LGBTIQ communities. Many activists as well as grassroots collectives — like Queers x Climate and Out for Sustainability — gather and spread information about the environmental impacts on LGBTIQ individuals. For example, Queers x Climate is an international queer-led initiative dedicated to promoting climate activism in the LGBTIQ community and beyond. They bring together queer-led groups that are setting up or participating in climate justice marches. Recently, Out for Sustainability became the first LGBTIQ organisation to receive observer status by the UNFCCC.
