Two Heroes Challenging the Powerful
Making the necessary changes to address climate disruption will take massive collective action. But sometimes, a single individual can make an extraordinary difference. At age nine, Nalleli Cobo, suffering headaches, heart palpitations, nosebleeds, and body spasms, became an activist, driven to fighting to shut down the local oil well responsible for her ailments. Separately, Marjan Minnesma brought a historic lawsuit holding the Dutch government accountable for its failure to protect its citizens from climate change. For these activists, addressing climate disruption isn\u2019t just about preventing future harm, it\u2019s about instigating change now.\xa0\n\nGuests:\xa0\nNalleli Cobo, Cofounder, People Not Pozos\nMarjan Minnesma, Founder, Urgenda Foundation\n\nFor show notes and related links, visit ClimateOne.org.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
