About this episode
Michael gets a history lesson from Seth Klein, author of A Good War: Mobilizing Canada for the Climate Emergency, and learns how we can take inspiration from the Second World War to address the current climate crisis. They discuss numerous examples of how we mobilized at the individual, community and national levels during the war, and how we can support people in the current transition. They touch on parallels between the war and the pandemic. They also cover the Green New Deal, labour unions, the role of youth, and how you can get involved.
