Gen Z and baby boomers take on Big Oil

from What On Earth

They popularized, "OK, boomer" but when it comes to climate action, some Gen Z activists find they actually have much in common with their baby boomer counterparts. What On Earth columnist Aishwarya Puttur recently joined the Sue Big Oil campaign. While on the journey to get local governments to file lawsuits against big polluters, Aishwarya met fellow activist and retired journalist Erin Ellis. We get advice from both about overcoming generational stereotypes and uniting for change.
