CUER was founded on the belief that environmental justice is a critical aspect of social justice and that communities are entitled to participate fully and meaningfully in environmental decisions that affect them.

CUER’s award-winning resources to help teach intersectional environmental justice to youth are available for use and download. Created in collaboration with artist Charlie LaGreca, along with scores of New York City students, these comic and coloring books help bring the issues to life.
