Priscilla Solis Ybarra talks about Latinx Environmentalism and how it differs from white mainstream environmentalism. Dr. Ybarra is the author of Writing the Goodlife: Mexican Literature and the Environment. “Goodlife writing embraces the values of simplicity, sustenance, dignity and respect. The values in goodlife writing implicitly integrate the natural environment as part of the community, and thus cultivate a life-sustaining ecology for humans.” Latinx Environmentalism reflects our lives, our histories, our cultures and provides us with hope for the future of our planet!
