Climate Justice 101

Welcome to Season 4 of Pullback, where we’ll be focusing entirely on climate justice — what it means, why it matters, and the policies we can implement today to address the crisis and build a fairer world. In this first episode, hosts Kristen and Kyla explore how climate change is already impacting people around the world, including the ways it’s deepening existing inequalities — especially for communities that are already marginalized.

Featuring expert insights from Dr. Joan Casey, Associate Professor at the University of Washington in Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences; Dr. Sean Kidd, Associate Professor in Psychiatry at the University of Toronto and a Senior Scientist with the Slaight Family Centre for Youth in Transition at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health; Dr. Ingrid Waldron, Professor and HOPE Chair in Peace and Health at McMaster University; and Stéphane Hallegatte, Senior Climate Change Adviser at the World Bank. Join us as we unpack the connections between climate change and social inequality, and make the case for urgent collective action to build a more just future.
