ENVIRONMENTAL justice will be under the microscope in a talk later this month.

The Global Justice Reading group is hosting a talk at RISC in London Street.

Kerima Mohldeen and Saul Jones from the London Mining Network will talk about their work with communities who are impacted by mining works.

They will use film and interactive activities to unpack their thesis.

A Just Transition and Environmental Justice is free, and the event starts at 7.30pm on Wednesday, March 29.
