Klein discusses the ideas of her book, This Changes Everything. She argues that any real solution to the climate crisis will have to overturn four aggravating factors: privatization, deregulation, "austerity," and "free-trade" deals.
This week she focuses on popular movements that have built alternative, environmentally friendly utilities. Or at least have hindered environmentally destructive ones such as new pipelines.
Plus a song by David Rovics & commentary by KD.
Introduction and afterword by KD.
Previously broadcast, as NWN #345, in October 2014
Klein spoke in Montreal on September 16, 2014. Original recording courtesy of CKUT Community News, CKUT-FM, Montreal. Many thanks for it. I have lightly edited the original for radio broadcast (mostly removing hesitations and stumbles and adjusting volume levels). The uncut original recording is available on radio4all.net: http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/program/77307 .
New World Notes is produced under the auspices (Latin for "table") of WWUH-FM, a community service of that beacon of light in darkest Connecticut, the University of Hartford.
