Hawaiian Resistance, Tourism & Abolition: For The Love of The Mauna, Part 3

Please join us for the third and final piece of our series on the movement to protect Mauna Kea. We have been incredibly humbled and blessed to have reported on the movement, and are so grateful to everyone who made this possible.
During the pandemic as tourist numbers have dropped, fish have returned in areas in Hawai’i where they have been absent for years. The land is healing itself. Despite the toll excessive tourism and capitalism has taken on the Hawaiian islands; there is still hope to heal. 27 years ago in 1993, tourists outnumbered Hawaiian residents 6:1 and Native Hawaiians 30:1 . Imagine how those figures have risen today...
The Mauna Kea movement has been one of relationships: to land, water, air, kanaka (people), and spirit. On this episode we hear again from the incredible Jamaica Osorio, activist, educator, and cultural practitioner; and Dr. Auntie Noe Noe Wong-Wilson, scholar, poet, and activist. They discuss the lessons and revelations from time on the Mauna and pathways forward to honor relationships and empower future generations.
We recorded this episode the day after the violent insurrection on the Capitol, so we bring in our thoughts about resistance, activism, and overthrow under settler colonialism.
We hope that through this series you can join us in imagining an otherwise future, built and cemented in Indigenous relationships. There is so much to learn beyond this series, so please continue learning alongside us.
“We are certainly not too late to live in dignity with our āina” - Jamaica Osorio

The State of Welsh Nature
1/31/21 by BBC Radio Wales
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000rt4c
Episode: http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/6/redir/version/2.0/mediaset/audio-nondrm-download/proto/http/vpid/p095dyvd.mp3
The State of Nature - Wales is using up its natural resources at an "unsustainable rate" and is yet to meet any of the long-term aims it had set to tackle the issue, according to its environment watchdog.
A meat processing plant in Montgomeryshire recently warned it could shed a third of its 150 jobs due to increased paperwork and extra costs post-Brexit. We hear the wider implications for those trying to export food into Europe.
How do we develop a nature-based economy?
Hemp - a project to assess the viability of growing hemp seed and fibre on Welsh farms for industrial purposes.

Is It Too Late To Stop Climate Change? Well, it's Complicated.
The science is clear
We are facing an unprecedented global emergency
We must act now


“We are in a planetary emergency.”
Professor James Hansen, Former Director NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies

“This is an emergency and for emergency situations we need emergency action.”
Ban Ki-Moon, Former UN Secretary-General

"The climate emergency is our third world war. Our lives and civilization as we know it are at stake, just as they were in the Second World War."
Professor Joseph Stiglitz, Economist, recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences

“Based on sober scientific analysis, we are deeply within a climate emergency state but people are not aware of it.”
Professor Hans Schellnhuber, Founding Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research

“There is sufficient evidence to draw the most fundamental of conclusions: now is the time to declare a state of planetary emergency. The point is not to admit defeat, but to match the risk with the necessary action to protect the global commons for our own future.”
Professor Johan Rockstrom, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research

“Climate change will lead to battles for food.”
Jim Yong Kim, Former President of The World Bank

“Climate change is the greatest security threat of the 21st century,”
Maj Gen Munir Muniruzzaman (Retd.), chairman of the Global Military Advisory Council on Climate Change

“You have to understand, this is also a crisis for the world. The fact is that if the poor are suffering today, then the rich will also suffer tomorrow.”
Dr Sunita Narain, Director General of the Centre for Science and Environment

“Climate change is moving faster than we are - and its speed has provoked a sonic boom SOS across our world. We face a direct existential threat.”
António Guterres, United Nations Secretary-General

"We have all the resources we need to deal with this. There is nothing magical about reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We just don’t have the political or economic will to do this.”
Professor Stephan Harrison, Professor of Climate and Environmental Change, University of Exeter

“Listen to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor, who suffer the most. The urgent need for interventions can no longer be postponed.”
Pope Francis

“The future of the human race is now at stake.”
Rowan Williams, Former Archbishop of Canterbury

The '1%' are the main drivers of climate change, but it hits the poor the hardest: Oxfam report

The richest 1% of the global population have used two times as much carbon as the poorest 50% over the last 25 years, the nonprofit’s report says.

[...]

The coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated inequality in almost every way (billionaires’ wealth increased by $3.9 trillion between March 18 and December 31, while the number of people living on less than $5.50 a day may have increased to as many as 500 million in 2020, Oxfam says), and that extends to carbon consumption.

For instance, ”[w]orldwide sales of private jets soared when commercial travel was banned,” the Oxfam report says.

“In country after country it is the richest who are least affected by the pandemic, and are the quickest to see their fortunes recover. They also remain the greatest emitters of carbon, and the greatest drivers of climate breakdown.”

[...]

“The fight against inequality and the fight for climate justice are the same fight,” says the Oxfam report says. “The pandemic has shown us that massive action by governments is possible in the face of a crisis; we must see the same level of action to prevent climate breakdown.”

[...]

“Nowhere in the world should governments allow the construction of a single new coal-fired power station, the public health and climate costs of which are borne by the poorest and most marginalized communities worldwide,” the report suggests.

Further, says Oxfam, governments should implement scaled taxes on carbon emissions: Luxury-related consumption that drives carbon emissions — such as “frequent or business class flights” or gas-guzzling large vehicles, according to the report — should be taxed at a higher rate for the carbon consumption.

Man-made pharmaceutical drugs and chemicals are making their way into our drinking water at unprecedented levels. What’s happening exactly and what can we do about it? Carrie Jennings, a field geologist who works with Freshwater, a leading public nonprofit dedicated to preserving freshwater resources and their surrounding watersheds, answers these questions and more. Today, Carrie explains how antibiotic use on farms, and residue from anti-inflammatories, antidepressants, and other pharmaceutical drugs end up contaminating our waters. She goes over the worst toxins, dubbed “forever chemicals,” and tells us how to avoid them when making purchases. And she offers suggestions for what each of us can do to protect the quality of our water for our own health and the sake of everyone in our local community.
