Aruna Chandrasekhar on how climate activism has kept going in a time of isolation.
Covid-19 has exposed the cracks in the system that climate activists have warned of for years. A spiky pathogen has made us more aware of just how connected we are in a globalized world.
The pandemic has also thrown a spanner in the global climate protest movement that had been gathering critical momentum.
The New Internationalist is an independent bi-monthly not-for-profit magazine that reports on action for global justice. We believe in putting people before profit, in climate justice, tax justice, equality, social responsibility and human rights for all.
New Internationalist acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We acknowledge that these lands were stolen and sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders both past and present.
