Start Thinking About Things Getting Better

The Environment in Canada Podcast

The river always had rights... Conor talks with Gilbert Whiteduck & Yenny Vega Cardenas about Rights for the Tenàgàdino Zibi/Gatineau River & Magpie River. They discuss how to be proactive in recognizing the Rights of Nature & make systemic change. How it starts with dialog - but it can't end there.
They also discuss how the pursuit of the Rights of Nature is engaging people in a meaningful dialog on Truth and Reconciliation and what to do if an electoral candidate comes to your door. You can find out more about the Tenàgàdino Alliance here and Observatoire Nature here.
In the Q&A we answer a question someone asked us: 'Why don't farmers affected by climate change just buy insurance?'
