The Critical Ecology Lab (CEL) is a startup environmental research institution and a people’s think tank.
We investigate social inequality and extractive economies as root causes of climate change and ecological dysfunction using environmental data and social theory. We use our insights to design creative solutions towards ecological reparations and sustainability solutions.
We integrate the scientific and generational knowledge of oppressed communities to fight back against social and planetary crises.
Invest in Our Vision
As a nonprofit, Black and female-founded institution, we are building a new pathway for scientific experts and communities to produce the high-quality information and interventions needed in this critical moment for the environment and society.
Invest in values-aligned scientific research, education, and empowerment of historically marginalized communities.
