Climate justice and solidarity: how can we support the movement?
With Steve Trent (Environmental Justice Foundation) Chiara Liguori (Amnesty International), Dottie Grace Guerrero (Global Justice Now), Mala Rao (NHS), Damien Short (Human Rights Consortium) at the advaya event Climate Justice: Rights for People & Planet. Climate change revolves around a question of global inequality and demonstrates the mass destruction fuelled by our consumerist growth economy. This was an evening of talks, panels, food, drinks, music and spoken-word exploring the human rights implications of the environmental crisis. We explored ecocide, globalisation, the growth-based economy, extreme energy, corporatisation, public health, and much more.
