Episode 5 of this 6-part special series takes on the equity marker: leaving no one behind. Erin Blondeau speaks with economist Jim Stanford, campaigner Anjali Appadurai, and strategist Seth Klein about what just transitions must look like in practice. They explore the realities for fossil fuel workers, the importance of linking climate action to economic fairness, and Canada’s responsibilities globally. Their conversation highlights that climate action succeeds only when it’s grounded in solidarity: supporting workers, expanding public services, addressing inequality, and ensuring that communities most impacted by the crisis are centred in solutions. It’s a reminder that justice isn’t an add-on: it’s the strategy.Links & references:The Fair Shares campaign website: www.climatefairshare.caSupport the Fair Shares platform 350.org/canada/fairshare Centre for Future Work website: centreforfuturework.ca The G7 and Canada’s climate fair share - Break in Case of Emergency Enormous Jobs Potential from Energy Transition Investments - Jim StanfordWhy tackling climate and inequality must go hand-in-hand - Seth KleinTestimony to the House of Commons Finance Committee about the need for a Just Transition Transfer - Seth KleinWhy aren’t we talking about war taxes? - Seth Klein (video) More on the 6 Markers of the Climate Emergency:Watch our video: 6 Markers of Climate Emergency Action  Listen to all 6 episodes of our special series & the 6-marker overview episode from March 2025.Learn more about the 6 markers at www.davidsuzukiinstitute.ca/6-markers-of-climate-emergencyCredits:Produced by Erin Blondeau and Doug Hamilton-Evans.
