Pakistan Floods and COP 27 with Asad Rehman
Manage episode 346318459 series 3005472
This summer immense flooding struck Pakistan and devastated the landscape and its people. 31 million people have been displaced and the country is a long way from recovery. Today COP 27 starts in Egypt. Loss and Damages are right at the top of the agenda and the fight continues for reparation for those already affected by climate breakdown.
This week we welcome back on the show Asad Rehman from War on Want. We discuss the cataclysmic flooding in Pakistan, how colonialism exacerbated the flooding and how the global south is left defenseless through debt . Asad also talks us through COP27, what's on the line and how mass movements from Africa and round the world are fighting for change in Egypt and against the Egyptian government.
