Justice and ecology are two topics currently in the news because Rio +20 (United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on June 20-22, 2012) is fast approaching.
On Saturday, June 9, the members of the Groupe Solidarité benefitted from a session on Ecology and Social Justice, offered by the Carrefour de participation, a resource and education center, CPRF.
Mrs. Louise Lafortune, the animator for the day, helped us to discover the inescapable link between ecology and social justice. With her, we identified the crises which are unsettling to our world, affecting the most vulnerable people and putting life (on earth) in danger.
