Shao Zhong's Company Details
Green 2.0 is a 501(c)3 independent advocacy campaign to increase racial diversity among environmental organizations. Green 2.0 believes in a powerful, winning environmental movement grounded in equity and inclusion. Given that support for environmental causes is highest among people of color and the reality that they are most impacted by environmental problems, the movement should be accessible, welcoming, and open to them at the highest levels. In the 21st century, the success of environmental causes will be based on our ability to transform into more just, inclusive, and relevant organizations and movements.Our Work Moving Forward:Data Transparency - We will lean in on our work to collect and report organizational-level data on NGO and funder demographics and practices by updating and modernizing the tools we use to track progress.Movement Tracking: We will track and publicize the demographics and content of the largest annual environmental convenings, and evaluate whether and how justice and equity are embedded in the biggest environmental political campaigns and policy fights of the coming years.Public Attention: We will work through traditional and new media to spread the narrative of the growing power of people of color and the importance of justice and equity to environmental progress in public discussions and in the framing of environmental issues.Rewarding Leadership: We will publicize the NGO and foundation leaders who are leveraging their power and privilege to engage, fund, and provide access to people of color. This includes how funders are encouraging and supporting grantees to deepen their equity work.
