It’s About Ecological Wealth with Isaias Hernandez

Listeners, this week we had a conversation with Isaías Hernandez.

Isaias Hernandez (he/him), aka @QueerBrownVegan, is a freelance environmental educator and content creator focusing on topics like veganism, zero-waste, and environmental justice. Isaias is from Los Angeles, CA, where he lived in a community that faced environmental injustice. Because of this, he became interested in learning about and protecting the environment. He went on to earn his B.S. in Environmental Science at the University of California, Berkeley where he worked on a variety of diversity inclusion work in environmental spaces, academic research, and creative work. He now resides in New York and Los Angeles, working as a full-time content creator, public speaker, sustainability consultant, and business coach.
