Hothouse Earth, Colonialism & Hypocrisy (619)

We explore the new “Hothouse Earth” study and its political and social implications. Lauren Latour joins us again to discuss the dismantling of the green energy industry in Ontario. We also consider the strange anti-media tactics of the new provincial government, along with a flurry of news items including the slave-like treatment of Californian inmate firefighters, UK food security and Caribbean nations’ ire with Donald Trump’s 'environmental policy'.
