The Great Extinction: Trump & the Threat of Climate Collapse I In conversation with Disha Ravi
In this episode, youth climate justice activist Disha Ravi examines how climate change is not just a scientific issue but a political one. She unpacks how the Global North’s broken promises on climate finance, combined with the rollback of environmental protections, create a new form of “climate colonialism” that disproportionately impacts communities in the Global South. Ravi highlights the urgency of this crisis and the burden it places on frontline communities, Indigenous peoples, and farmers.
Tune in as Ravi shares her insights on resisting corporate and state inaction, and the need for justice-centered climate movements to hold powerful entities accountable.
