A Blueprint to Act on Climate! w/ Mike Tidwell, Brooke Harper, Harrison Wallace, & Nathan Phillips

from The Coolest Show · host Hip Hop Caucus

How do we get our elected leaders to take necessary action on climate change? How can we organize to help make it happen? We are joined by leaders from one of the most successful regional climate organizations in the United States, the Chesapeake Climate Action Network, to learn the blueprint for climate action and what it took to get D.C. to pass the boldest piece of climate legislation in the country. Guests from the Chesapeake Climate Action Network include Executive Director, Mike Tidwell, Maryland Director, Brooke Harper, and Virginia Director, Harrison Wallace. We also give you a bonus special interview with Nathan Phillips, the Indigenous elder who showed amazing bravery while diffusing a confrontation following the Indigenous People’s March. Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr. hosts along with co-hosts, Mustafa Santiago Ali and Antonique Smith. Recorded live for radio, the episode opens with current events in the climate movement.
