Poetry, activism and climate change | all about women 2018

Climate change is often spoken about as an abstract problem. Used as a political device by people far removed from the day-to-day reality of rising waters and increasing temperatures, conversations about global warming can often feel distant from our daily lives. At All About Women 2018, we invited two warriors for climate justice to share their experiences of what is happening right now in our world. In a panel called Disappearing Islands, acclaimed spoken-word poet Kathy Jetnil Kijiner from Marshall Islands joined climate activist Ursula Rakova from Bougainville in Papua New Guinea. They were with journalist Jacqueline Maley to discuss what action we can take to save our planet.
