Throughout the environmental movement\u2019s two hundred year history, numerous victories have been won and the tactics have evolved to tackle the crises of those times. However, today critics argue traditional environmental activism is no longer effective in the face the most challenging environmental issue humans have ever faced \u2013 climate change. The question must be asked: How must the environmental movement itself be challenged?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emily Hunter argues in her thesis that a rebirth is taking place, transforming environmentalism past its own limitations and interconnecting with so-called \u201cseparate movements,\u201d such as economic and social justice movements. This \u201cmovement of movements,\u201d as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naomiklein.org\/main\">Naomi Klein<\/a> calls it, is being lead by youth with particularly Generation Y. &nbsp;To support her argument, this paper dives into the history, present and future of the environmentalism, suggesting that the movement is morphing into an entirely new animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/902\/2021\/10\/the-environmental-turning-point-emily-hunter.pdf\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"652\" height=\"618\" data-src=\"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/902\/2021\/10\/Screen-Shot-2021-10-07-at-10.56.01-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-399 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/902\/2021\/10\/Screen-Shot-2021-10-07-at-10.56.01-AM.png 652w, https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/902\/2021\/10\/Screen-Shot-2021-10-07-at-10.56.01-AM-300x284.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 652px) 100vw, 652px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 652px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 652\/618;\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Environmental Turning Point: Transcending a Movement to the Fourth Wave &amp; Beyond University of Toronto at Scarborough, Bachelors of<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/the-environmental-turning-point-2011\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">The Environmental Turning Point (Major Paper, 2011)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":950,"featured_media":399,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"templates\/full-width-page.php","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32,29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-more","category-university-of-toronto-ba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/393","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/950"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=393"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/393\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":453,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/393\/revisions\/453"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/399"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=393"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=393"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/webspace.royalroads.ca\/ehunter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=393"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
