Shoulder to shoulder - how the struggle for climate and animals go together |
Martin Smedjeback |
The climate crisis is a threat to all conscious life on earth. Without a functioning climate, we don't have anything left to fight for. For too long, there has been a singular focus on fossil fuels in the climate movement. We can't solve the climate crisis without switching to a plant-based diet. On this issue, we in the animal rights movement have a great opportunity to work with the climate justice movement. In this presentation, Martin will give examples of how this is already happening and provide thoughts on the road ahead. |
