Both People and Planet (feat. Kristy Drutman and Wawa Gatheru)
Manage episode 314352382 series 3000021
What does a sustainable future look like? In this episode, we’re breaking down why a truly sustainable future needs to be not only climate secure, but equitable and just for all. What does the industrialized world owe to developing nations for the climate devastation their economies have caused? On an individual scale, what do we owe each other as neighbors on this shared planet? How can finding community be an antidote for despair and help strengthen us as we walk into this uncertain future together? Joining us to unpack these questions and more are Kristy Drutman of Brown Girl Green, and Wawa Gatheru of Black Girl Environmentalist, two young environmental activists who are devoting their lives to this work. Plus, Sophia Li signs off on this season of Climate Talks with one last call to action.

Kristy Drutman | Brown Girl Green | Founder
Wanjiku ‘Wawa’ Gatheru | Black Girl Environmentalist | Founder
