What is the price of a whale? How many tons of carbon can you offset with a humpback?For this installment of Crash #COP27, Edgar talks about the mental toll the COP is taking on him. From the tightly controlled atmosphere that limits dissent and on the ground actions from civil society representatives, to the absurdity of the false solutions being peddled (like whales as carbon offsets), it's difficult to find hope in the COP process. Is the COP really the place for action on climate change?Jill and Edgar examine where the hope and future lies for frontline communities outside of the COP. They discuss the need for an alternative "People's COP," and how the Just Transition framework helps us ground our work by daylighting what the false solutions are and where the real solutions lie.Recorded on November 12, 2022.
