Green syndicalism

Green syndicalism is a type of activism that uses protest and workers’ rights to stand up for a greener, more sustainable and fair world. People who believe in green syndicalism believe that people should unite in order to protect and improve the environment. They think that the best way to do this is to organize protests, boycotts and strikes in order to create change. For example, if a company is using too much energy or polluting the environment, green syndicalists might organize a boycott against them until the company changes its practices. They also believe in protecting workers’ rights, which could mean standing up for better pay or better working conditions.
