In this episode, a tough discussion of the realities of the systemic injustices baked into our system. How bias affects not only climate change policies, but creates unnecessary and terrible burdens on minorities in the United States. Our guest is Tina Johnson Director of the National Black Environmental Network and Principal of Johnson Strategy and Development Consultants. Working with top US NGOs, the UN and international governments, she uses diplomacy, strategic development and advocacy on issues ranging from sustainability, food security and climate justice to pave a way forward for a more equitable existence - against entrenched forces and our own biases. Tough words we all need to hear.
