Episode notes
Climate Apartheid and Colonialism
- Climate apartheid and climate colonialism describe how climate change intensifies existing inequalities.
- Those who can insulate themselves from climate change's effects become the "haves," while the vulnerable become the "have-nots."
Land Acquisition in Africa
- Land acquisition in Africa by corporations and nations threatens food, water, and energy security.
- This consolidation of land ownership exacerbates existing vulnerabilities and power imbalances.

- Collaborative security, conversely, recognizes that collective well-being ensures individual safety.
