Synopsis: We continue our series on militarism and the climate crisis, speaking with Lorah Steichen from the Institute for Policy Studies. We talk about our wars for oil, how our federal spending on the war machine hamstrings our ability to address climate change, and the ways climate change and border militarization are inextricably linked. So go ahead and mark your calendars for Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. eastern for wbai.org, or catch our recording after. This is not a rebellious conversation you want to miss.
Guests:
Lorah Steichen is Outreach Coordinator for the National Priorities Project at the Institute for Policy Studies. She is the co - author of "No Warming, No War: How Militarism Fuels the Climate Crisis and Vice Versa."
