On Wild Idaho Rising Tideâs (http://wildidahorisingtide.org/) Monday, July 23, Climate Justice Forum radio program, we gratefully talk with Jesse Cardinal, downriver coordinator for Keepers of the Athabasca in Alberta and co-organizer of the Third Annual Tar Sands Healing Walk at Fort McMurray, and Greg Mack, lead activist of Northern Rockies Earth First! in Moscow, Idaho. Jesse discusses the August 4 spiritual journey and First Nations resistance to tar sands exploitation, and Greg recounts the first ever suspension of a hydraulic fracturing drilling operation in the U.S., in response to a July 8 EF! blockade in a Pennsylvania state forest. Originally broadcast on KRFP Radio Free Moscow (http://radiofreemoscow.org/) between 7:30 and 9:30 pm PDT live at 92.5 FM and online, the show also covers regional and continent-wide climate activism news.
Helen Yost of Wild Idaho Rising Tide offers news and conversations with climate change activists and scientists about corporate dirty energy projects and citizen resistance, interspersed with protest songs and descriptions of grassroots direct actions and community initiatives.
