Digital Toolkits for Inclusive Climate Justice Movements

While researching an essay on the Paris climate agreement, Jett reached out to Pensacola 350, a local climate action network, for some expertise. At the meeting, he noticed that very few youth environmentalists were there. So, at 17, he took up the mantle as director of the 350 Pensacola Youth Climate Coalition and began organizing. With his success, he got the attention of Fridays For Future Digital, and began creating far reaching digital protests to combat climate change. Jett’s digital activism quickly expanded all over the globe. Among his many projects, he has helped draft Twitter and email campaigns for Friends of Zoka a group of northern Ugandans trying to stop illegal logging in the rainforests. And he is helping raise to awareness for the # the first binding treaty in Latin America and the Caribbean that deals with environmental democracy and environ mental human rights.
