CLIMATE ONE: Heroic Lives of Climate Defenders
Manage episode 451400407 series 13382
Climate advocacy is a dangerous business. According to Global Witness, every week, somewhere in the world, between three and four environmental activists are killed. And even when they don’t suffer bodily harm, they are routinely arrested and jailed for speaking out. They are also sued in civil cases, bogging them down for years or even bankrupting them and their families.
Each personal story in this episode is unique, but the physical threats and legal weapons fossil fuel companies and governments wield against them are eerily similar. And yet, the voices of climate defenders will not be silenced.
Guests:
Alfred Brownell, Founding President, Global Climate Legal Defense (CliDef)
Laura Furones, Senior Advisor, Land and Environmental Defenders Campaign, Global Witness
Nicole Figueiredo de Oliveira, Executive Director, Arayara
Sarah Benn, Medical Doctor and Climate Activist
