Rolling Hills, Green Pastures
Manage episode 364191732 series 3455875
Esperanza Soto welcomes new recruits to a U.S. drone centre. Run entirely on wind energy, the centre is part of the U.S. Army’s Green Military Movement. One of the drone operators is a climate refugee from Vancouver. What choices will she make when climate refugees attempt to cross the border from Mexico?
A heads up that this episode contains military violence, so keep that in mind when deciding when and where to listen.
