In this segment we will hear an interview with Judy Rebick, founder of rabble.ca, author and long time social justice activist in Canada who speaks on the central importance of climate justice to activism internationally. Rebick focuses on the inspiration of the Bolivia-driven alternative climate justice organizing process to the top-down UN climate change summits and the urgent need for action on climate change. Also addressed in this interview is an analysis on the contemporary reality in Canada, both the record of the Harper Conservative government on the environment and the need to address with the realities of indigenous lands rights in relation to environmental struggles in Canada.
