Climate Justice
In 2021, the Verizon Forward for Good Accelerator program worked with startups to scale solutions to strengthen climate resilience.
Meet our climate justice cohort.
We worked to uncover the story of communities disrupted by climate change, and spotlight the startups working to bring them justice.
Climate change affects everyone.
The Climate Justice program was designed to acknowledge that climate impacts are felt differently across communities, and aims to ensure that no one shoulders an unequal burden.
The Verizon Forward for Good Accelerator program supported startups using leading edge technology to help communities build resilience and thrive as the climate changes with a specific focus on populations facing systemic challenges related to race, gender, disability, income, immigration status, or age.
Moving forward sustainably.
Verizon is preparing for a low-carbon future by investing in renewable energy, improving energy efficiency and reaching net zero carbon emissions in our operations by 2035.
