First Climate Education class in Cyberspace

WildEarth Climate Action Team (a.k.a. WCAT) held it's first virtual Climate Education Class this morning.

We shared this video: “The Paris Climate Target and the Post-Growth Imperative,”  (20 mins).
 The speaker, Dr. Jason Hickel, challenged the idea that we have to make climate adaptation fit within the growth-based model of economic theory. He explores the concepts of a post-growth economy and "degrowth".

Dr. Jason Hickel, who teaches at the University of London, is author of The Divide: A Brief Guide to Global Inequality and its Solutions.

Next virtual class: Tuesday, 4/21, 12 -1:30.  There will be a new post with Zoom link info.
