This article is part of "Journey Toward Climate Justice," a series exploring the systemic inequities of the climate crisis. By 2050, the World Bank estimates that climate change could force 216 million people to be displaced from their homes within their own countries. Climate change is thought to be one of several contributors to the wildfires — as droughts increased in the region, vegetation dried, creating dry conditions conducive to fires. Migration and the climate crisis are inextricably linked, climate experts say. "People shouldn't be forced to leave home because of climate change," Francis said.

It says itworks with local, state, and federal organizations to effect policy change on topics including foreign policy, mental health, and climate. For the first year, Kohn-Murphy said, he spent time building the brand and working on a volunteer basis. He built the platform's infrastructure, created a posting schedule, and started to imagine what Gen-Z for Change could be outside of a TikTok account. A day in Kohn-Murphy's life includes attending classes at Harvard, building the business, and trying to have what he described as a typical college experience.
