Audio reports on struggles for environmental justice, produced for broadcast on campus/community radio stations globally, featuring voices from around the world engaged in front-line struggles for climate justice.

In this segment we will hear from Diana Bronson from the ETC Group (Action Group on Erosion, Technology and Concentration), speaking on the growing global focus and environmental threat of geoengineering. Bronson focuses on growing corporate involvement in geoengineering projects to push ocean fertilization and chemical-driven modification to alter the upper layers of the atmosphere, stratospheric aerosols, as 'solutions' to climate change. In this interview Bronson highlights growing grassroots efforts internationally to establish an global, legally binding agreement to ban geoengineering in the lead-up to the Rio +20 conference taking place in Brazil, 2012.
