Award-winning independent journalist DAHR JAMAIL discusses aspects of the climate crisis--and how individuals can respond to it. Topics include melting glaciers, methane feedback loops, geoengineering, industrial capitalism, and indigenous vs. capitalist-consumer approaches to the world.
We have much to learn from indigenous peoples, Jamail stresses--and we had better learn it fast.
This is the Q&A session following Jamail's April 11 talk in Syracuse (NWN #601-602), edited by KD.
