Cecilia Martinez Biography

Cecilia Martinez is the co-founder and Executive Director of the Center for Earth, Energy, and Democracy. In 2020, she was named one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People, nominated by New Jersey Senator Cory Booker for her work in environmental justice and climate policy. On September 5, 2020, she was announced as a member of the Advisory Board of United States President-elect Joe Biden.

Martinez is recognized for her work advocating for environmental justice, centering the voices and perspectives of communities that have been most impacted by climate change and environmental pollution. She co-founded the Center for Earth, Energy, and Democracy (CEED), which launched in 2011. The organization works to provide research and analytical support to environmental justice groups and coalitions, as well as educating and empowering communities at the forefront of the environmental justice movement.

In her capacity as Executive Director of CEED, Martinez helped shape and launch the Equitable and Just Climate Platform in 2018, a collaboration among CEED, the Center for American Progress, and the Natural Resources Defense Council. Participants in the Platform worked together to propose an agenda for environment and climate policy that centers the needs and concerns of communities that have been most affected by pollution; the agenda was subsequently published in July 2019. On the Platform's anniversary in July 2020, Martinez and John Podesta co-authored a call to tackle environmental racism while addressing the health and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the run up to the 2020 United States presidential election, candidate Joe Biden invited Martinez to join his Climate Engagement Advisory Council, which focused on mobilizing voters and fine-tuning Biden's climate policies. She also advised on developing his $2 trillion plan to combat climate change, which includes a commitment to invest 40% of clean energy money into communities that have been disproportionately impacted by environmental racism. In this capacity, Martinez focused on advocating for the importance of environmental justice in climate policies. After Biden was elected President of the United States, she was appointed to his transition team to lead the review of the Council on Environmental Quality and is on the shortlist to head the Council after his inauguration.
