Green Majority Radio

We discuss the utility of despair and how we might imagine a new inclusivity. In the middle segment we interview environmental policy analyst Gideon Forman about how he frames the climate crisis in his talks with university students.

We talk the Global Climate Strike, Extinction Rebellion, Justin Trudeau, and coal.

This week we talk about the Amazon, Bolsonaro and the climate proposals of Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Andrew Yang.

An interview with outgoing Executive Director of Cycle Toronto Jared Kolb. We discuss what he’s learned about activism in the nine years of leading and growing the organization, and how board games fit into it all.

We need to watch carefully how environmental rhetoric can turn authoritarian. This week we talk about climate change, eco-fascism, food security, environmental justice, the tar sands, and a whole bunch of energy utility stories.

We talk about government-incited violence, climate, and the plastics industry. In our final segment we speak with Reverend Dr. Cheri DiNovo about mobilizing interfaith communities to combat climate change.

We’ve said it before but it’s still true: we all need to think about how to live differently. This week we talk climate despair, imagination, land rights, coal, renewables, investment, fuel efficiency, coal miners and “green” corporatism.

We begin with the Mauna Kea protests in Hawaii and an oil spill off Newfoundland, then move into a two-segment rebuke of an article from Mark P. Mills arguing that the green energy transition is ‘magical thinking’.

When it comes to climate change, the rich will profit off the very thing they protect themselves from. This week we discuss corporate security, protest surveillance, the Canadian state and climate refugees.
