A whole lot of nothing.

Climate change isn’t just about the planet, writes environmental activist Leehi Yona, but is connected to an array of issues spanning from transgender justice to racism to immigration reform.
Writing in The Nation, Ms. Yona laments President Trump’s appointment of a string of “climate-change deniers” to key positions in his administration, his withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord and his “assault on public lands,” leading to her conclusion that “Trump’s policy is climate destruction.”
For Ms. Yona, a Canadian graduate student at the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, climate change is not an isolated issue but rather one thread on an ideological loom, woven together with other progressive causes into a single cohesive fabric.
During the past summer, Yona writes, “I couldn’t even think about wildfires breaking across the continent without thinking about trans rights. I couldn’t think about Hurricane Irma without thinking about DACA.”
“Climate change isn’t just about the planet. It’s about justice: racial, social, socioeconomic, reproductive, and environmental,” she continues. “It’s about immigration reform, LGBTQIA+ rights, and religious freedom.”
“I find myself unable to think of climate change on its own,” Yona writes.
