Environmental Justice in Technology (EJIT) Principles Public Comment Form
The Earth Hacks Environmental Justice in Technology team has been drafting a set of Environmental Justice in Technology (EJIT) principles. We intend this set of principles to serve as a guiding framework for what environmental justice in technology should be. Inspired by the 17 Principles of Environmental Justice, we aim to provide ideals to strive towards in the work of activists, technologists, organizers, academics, and holders of power. Not all of the principles listed here can be acted on to their fullest extent immediately, and that’s OK. By uncompromisingly striving for these principles, we can achieve them over time. In doing so, we’ll create a fully environmentally just world where technology is part of the solution and not part of the problem.

We want to ask for your thoughts on these drafted principles! Based on your feedback, we will iterate on them to make the final version of the principles the best they can possibly be. Below, taking inspiration from the UNEP CODES Feedback Process, we have created some guiding questions regarding areas of the principles that we'd like feedback on, as well as a section to share open-ended thoughts. We will also be hosting two virtual feedback sessions at 1pm CDT on Saturday, September 3d and Wednesday, September 7th. There, you can provide your feedback interactively through a Jamboard document. More details about that will be forthcoming as we move closer to the session dates.
