The Capitol Beach explores the Biden Administration's recently released Ocean Climate Action Plan (OCAP). Host Derek Brockbank is joined by Scott Doney with the Office for Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and Libby Jewett with NOAA's Ocean Acidification Program, who were instrumental in drafting the plan and will be key agency leaders in the plan's implementation. Building off existing Administration policies together with new proposals, the OCAP sets forth a comprehensive set of actions for how the ocean and coasts can mitigate and adapt to climate change. The OCAP includes proposals for creating a carbon-neutral future, such as offshore wind and marine carbon dioxide removal, accelerate nature-based solutions, such as advancing blue carbon, as well as enhancing community resilience to ocean change and addressing ocean acidification.  The OCAP will direct federal agency actions and funding (including new climate and resilience funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act) but takes a “whole of the nation” approach to ocean climate response, attempting to inspire state and private sector actions. As Capitol Hill Ocean Week 2023 - “Ocean x Climate” – wraps up, dive into OCAP on this episode of The Capitol Beach!

In this episode, we continue our conversation with Alpha Abebe and Rhonda C. George!  (Haven't heard the first conversation yet? Listen here!) This time, we talk about Black communities' response to COVID, and public health response to Black communities. ----------------- During a public health crisis is the exact wrong time to try and build relationships and trust with communities who have not historically been included in health policy decision making, and whose health and health care needs continued to be neglected. But this, of course, doesn't mean that Black communities didn't recognize both the real danger posed by COVID, or their own tenuous connection to mainstream health services. Alpha and Rhonda share how leaders of Black-led organizations rallied to address community needs during COVID, and discuss the importance of supporting Black communities to build capacity and resilience for the future.  ----------------- Alpha Abebe is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Humanities at McMaster University, and Rhonda C. George is a PhD candidate in Sociology at York University. They're both researchers with the Public Engagement in Health Policy Project. This series is supported by the Public Engagement in Health Policy project, which promotes research, critical reflection and dialogue about engagement issues that have a health and health policy focus.

Chris and Morgan discuss an ethical framework Chris has been workshopping for the last few years, "An Ethics of Agency", with the foundation of maximizing agency "for you, for me, for everyone" and minimizing subjection. CW: Note that Chris talks about an incident involving them experiencing suicidal depression at one point.Links:Other philosophical systems mentioned:UtilitarianismKantianismEthics of CarePeter Singer's book Animal Liberation, and the argument for Equal consideration of interests. (Note that Peter Singer gets criticism from some disability circles; this is a good summary. In general it's our position to focus on "raising up" rights, including those of animals; pitting animal rights vs disabled rights need not be done in a society with as many resources as ours presently is.)Amartya Sen, whose book Development as Freedom had a bigger background influence than Chris probably realized in its treatment of the agency of people as the primary index by which we measure a country's developmentThe GNU Manifesto. Search for "Kantian ethics" on the page. (Curiously its preceding sentence is described in an example that appears consequentialist! By the way, pretty much every decent ethical system claims that its foundation is the "golden rule", this isn't unique to Kantianism.)The Free Software Definition.

An interview with John Clarke, a founder and long-time organizer with the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty in Toronto. OCAP has played a key role in the anti-poverty movement in Ontario over the past three decades, deploying a creative variety of militant and confrontational tactics in the interests of meeting the immediate needs of poor and working class people. Last year John retired as a paid organizer of OCAP, although he remains an active member. We spoke about the history and philosophy of the organization and what he believes is in store in the future for social movements in Ontario.
