- Journal of Global Environmental Justice - A student-edited journal through the Global Environmental Justice Observatory, an initiative founded at the University of California, Santa Cruz working to create a deeper global consciousness of environmental justice issues by providing accessible and educational resources. This journal aims to include a variety of topics, so any essay that was written by an undergraduate student and relates to a topic of environmental justice could be published. We do prefer senior theses and/or papers that have received honors from your professors or department. This is not a requirement but the essay needs to be academic in nature (with correct academic citations).
