The Earth Island Institute created the annual Brower Youth Awards to honor six young people for their outstanding activism and achievements in the fields of environmental and social justice advocacy. Each winner is awarded $3000 and brought to San Francisco for the award week and a backcountry camping trip. This video, made by Rikshaw Films, gives a little bit of insight into the kind of work the Institute is promoting with this award. Diana Lopez is a food justice activist in San Antonio, Texas, and she created the Roots of Change community garden in the Eastside of San Antonio to provide fresh organic food to community residents.
