In order to achieve environmental justice in Flint, which has faced various issues in relation to the Flint water crisis, ETM Flint is working to “build Flint resident’s capacity to address environmental justice issues in their neighborhoods, foster and facilitate collaborations to address environmental justice issues, and organize around issues like carbon neutrality, equitable land use, and reusing brownfields like Buick Cities to expand green manufacturing and renewable energy production,” co-founder and volunteer Executive Director Mona Munroe-Younis told Green Matters in June of this year.
Donations made to the fully volunteer-run group are used to fund ETM Flint’s programs supporting environmental justice and restorative practices.
