The executive director of the War on Want, Asad Rehman (pictured), hosted an online event -"COP28 and the fight for climate justice". Asad's three guests were impressive, but his summing up of the climate crisis, what we need to do and how we should behave is worth a listen. He's a thoughtful man. One of the guests discussed the UK's "Climate Justice Coalition", encouraging people to do what they could to support its activities. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/robert-mclean/message
