Liberating Sustainability - Class

Liberating Sustainability is an intersectional take on the climate emergency. In each episode, field-leaders from student liberation movements and academia deconstruct the exclusivity of sustainability activism and education.

Can we frame environmental crises in terms of class interests? How have corporate and political elites restricted sustainability activism? And can collective action – and solidarity through difference - challenge the individualisation of the sustainability movement? Unpacking these questions are Dr. Stacia Ryder, environmental sociologist at the University of Exeter, and Fraser Amos, Green New Deal and Labour Party activist.
