1/2 Started reading this Indigenous co-authored book: "The End of This World opens with . . . an [oil] industry insider [who] identified meaningful cooperation between Indigenous peoples and the environmental movement as an “apocalyptic scenario” . . .
"The erasure of [Indigenous] sovereignty is built into the Canadian state [so] a just transition isn’t achievable without . . . social movements to challenge Canada’s legacy of land theft and genocide." https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/end-of-this-world-review
3/ Green Majority #podcast, "What We Want" episode 04/14/23, discussing Chapters 4 & 5 of The End Of This World co-authored by Cree scholars Crystal Lameman and Angele Alook: in Cree, the word for "poor/poverty" isn't just lack of $/food/resources, but spiritual/social, & "personal wealth" not even a concept; Cree society structured as concentric circles w kids & elders in center & all had reciprocal responsibilities, vs our hierarchy w rich at the top #ClimateJustice https://www.greenmajority.ca/the-podcast/2023/4/14/what-we-want-861
4/ The other half of this episode is an interview with settler activists about Liquid Natural Gas (#LNG) in shipping as a #greenwash solution to legacy fuels: 90% of goods arrive to consumers by ship, so if you know anybody who says they care about climate but they don't get it about #reduce #reuse #degrowth, info from this interview might help move them there.
