Meet Chanté Davis, a youth climate activist and champion for change
Passionate and purposeful, 17-year-old Chanté Davis is an environmental justice activist who understands the power of youth voices, especially those of people of color.
Through her activism and campaigns, Chanté helps to raise the voices of BIPOC youth so that they are heard and connected with the movement. This Black History Month, we caught up with Chanté to learn about her campaign, role models and advice for teens who want to get involved with climate justice.
Getting started in the climate justice movement
Chanté started learning about the environment in her elementary school years. I went to a green school and they talked about recycling, we had a wind turbine, and they talked about water usage and runoff and pollution, she shares. I officially became an activist through Ocean Heroes, which was cofounded in 2017 by Captain Planet Foundation and Lonely Whale.
Please excuse SZA for the wait for new music; she’s busy saving the world.
In her ongoing journey to embrace and learn more about sustainability, the singer has teamed with TAZO Tea and American Forests to launch TAZO Tree Corps, a paid workforce that will plant trees and create jobs in underprivileged communities of color around the country to help fight climate change. The corps will consist of 25 locally hired fellows who will receive training in climate justice advocacy, tree planting, and maintenance. Over the next two years, they’ll work to achieve Tree Equity in Minneapolis, Detroit, the San Francisco Bay Area, the Bronx, and Richmond areas where low-income communities have less green space.
