Sojourner Truth Radio

Sojourner Truth Radio presents an exclusive debrief on the most recent edition of the climate impact report entitled "Hoodwinked in the Hothouse: Resisting False Solutions to Climate Change," written by the Global Justice Ecology Project and the Indigenous Environmental Network in partnership with several grassroots organizations from around the globe.

The report raises awareness about false climate solutions that champion superficial changes supported by the fossil fuel industry, and multi-billion corporations.

The release of this report comes shortly after the COP 15 Conference where these corporations, and the fossil fuel industry dominated attendance and participation throughout the conference while excluding some of the frontline communities from around the globe most severely impacted by the exploitation of resources.

The recent report compiled by this coalition presents sustainable solutions to climate change that center on indigenous practices and resistance to these band aid false solutions.

Today we will hear a round table discussion debriefing the report results and solutions with members of this coalition including Tom Goldtooth, E.D. for The Indigenous Environmental Network, Jackie Patterson of The Chisom Legacy Project, Monica de Oro from the Micronesia Climate Justice Alliance, and Ariel Chukwe Derange E.D. for Indigenous Climate Action.
