Scope of eco-justice activity on climate change

Below are a collection of three information videos to help clarify the scope of eco-justice activity and address some misconceptions and misinterpretations of the science of climate change. Andrea Cohen B. asks Did you ever notice that the same leaders denying climate change are the ones drumming up fear and hatred against migrants? Check out this short explainer video on why the climate movement must fight for migrant justice to win the world we need. Voiceover by Thandie Newton. Special thanks to Migrant Workers Alliance for Change and Harsha Walia for advice and guidance. Learn more: http://theleap.org/climate-migration/ (Creative Producer @Andrea Cohen B.

The AST Podcast on Climate Catastrophe Catastrophic climate change is here. People are being displaced, many species are becoming extinct. And this situation will get worse. This podcast begins to explore what Ethics, Law, and Theology have to say to this world, a world in crisis due to ecological catastrophe. It discusses some things you may have heard discussed before – such as why and how Christians need to change. It also explores questions that, as the 21st-century proceeds, will become more and more relevant such as - would acts of ecological terrorism, such as blowing up a pipeline, be morally justified? How should criminal law evolve in response to the unprecedented challenges climate-driven social catastrophe poses? And what lenses can Theology and Ethics bring to a new dark age of climate-driven social breakdown? In this conversation, AST David Deane is joined by Professor Cathy Driscoll and Professor Rob Currie. Cathy is a Professor in the Sobey School of Business at Saint Mary’s University and Chair of the Halifax-Yarmouth Diocesan Council for Development and Peace – Caritas Canada. She is a certified Laudato Si’ Animator with the Global Catholic Climate Movement. Rob is a Professor in the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University. He is a leading expert on criminal law whose work is regularly cited by the Supreme Court of Canada. His seminal, International and Transnational Criminal Law, was shortlisted for the Walter Owen Book Prize for Outstanding Legal Literature in 2011
