ABSTRACT
This chapter explores whether the tactics of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) architect activists, as a result of their own experiences, have a place in the debate on reimagining the world coming back down to earth. While the link between LGBT activism and climate change action may seem obscure, it has been insightful to track these subject areas in the press over the course of 2015. Similarly, when asked how the LGBT community could help fight climate change, New York-based Queers for the Climate were clear on their position. ‘Despite the fact that ‘going green’ may not be directly related to issues of sexuality, advocating for change is something with which many in the LGBT community have experience.’ Considering the mandate fought for, and largely won, by the LGBT community, we see that creative action and the tactics of inclusion have led to better equality, same-sex marriage, and a political voice.
