Buffalo suffered a very unjust transition in the 80s and 90s when the steel and shipping industries collapsed; 300,000 jobs were lost and the city’s population halved. It is now the third poorest city and the sixth most segregated city in the USA. But not-for-profit organisation PUSH Buffalo are bringing hope to West Buffalo, one of the most excluded areas of the city, by building grassroots community organisation that’s providing genuinely affordable accommodation, powered by renewable energy and insulated and weatherised to cut energy bills, and combatting both gentrification and climate change.
