Environmental Groups Showing Steady Diversity Gains, Group Says

Environmental groups are showing slow but steady progress in hiring people of color as full-time staff—though increasing diversity among board members and senior positions has been more modest, according to a report released Wednesday.

The report by Green 2.0 was based on data submitted by 67 of the most influential environmental groups, the largest response to date for the diversity-focused nonprofit’s annual survey known as the Transparency Report Card.
