You probably know that climate change is displacing communities, but did you expect that a climate conference would uproot people too?In our second episode of Crash #COP27, Jill checks in with Edgar to chat after he arrives in Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt, a couple of evenings before COP27 begins. They discuss how folks were moved out of Sharm El Sheikh to make room for the COP27 proceedings and touch on the large scale alterations made to the landscape of Sharm El Sheikh just for this one convention.Jill and Edgar go on to connect these changes back to Washington State by reflecting on the large scale alterations made here at home to the environment, from the transformation and pollution of the Duwamish River, to large-scale apple farming, and how the Lummi Nation worked overtime to save their wild salmon after a fish farm had a disastrous net pen mishap.Recorded on November 5, 2022.
