There’s no denying that fossil fuels play a big part of just about everybody’s life — but it is too big a part?
There is a growing movement to stop supporting the fossil fuel industry, at the very least until the industry cleans up its act, but also to promote alternative fuels.
My guests today are Richelle and Avi from Fossil Free UNB, a group on campus affiliated with the international 350.org. They’re calling for UNB to divest it’s financial investments in the fossil fuel industry, and re-invest those monies into other fields, such as renewable energy. We talked about the reasons to divest, the challenges of this message, and their event coming up on Thursday night.
Music today:
- Golden Dogs present Decided from their new album, 3 1/2;
- And relating (somewhat) to our guests, check out the lyrics of Cold Black River by Sleepy Driver from their album Ignatius.
