Isaias Hernandez is a young climate activist whose background, education and insights make him one of the most prominent eco-communicators of his generation. A child of Mexican immigrants, he grew up in LA next door to polluting chemical companies, and went on to study Environmental Science at Berkeley. He soon realized that the language around environmentalism was so inaccessible he could hardly explain it to his mother, a teacher. To help bridge the gap between science and understanding, he launched @queerbrownvegan on Instagram. Listen to this episode of Progressive Hedonist to learn about Hernandez’s journey as well as his thoughts on climate grief, food systems and his most recent project, Symbiocene, an events company that brings together people with varying worldviews to discuss something they share in common—a love of the planet.
