Climify Abolition and Resistance: In the Grassroots with Kobi Naseck
Series 1: Lifestyle as Systems Change
The guests in our lifestyle series are all “walking the walk.” They have integrated climate consciousness into their everyday lives and ways of being. For these experts, climate action is not a discrete choice, but an intrinsic part of their lives. From them, we can learn how to transform our own practices and mindsets to be mores sustainable and future-focused.
In this episode, Kobi Naseck shares with Eric his journey as a climate activist and community organizer and how all of us can find a place in the climate justice movement. He discusses his work with VISIÓN (where his goal is to end neighborhood oil drilling), why abolition and climate justice are intertwined, the current state of climate justice in California, why our elected officials won’t save us, and how to measure success in the climate justice movement.
