The Wednesday, October 18, 2023, Climate Justice Forum radio program, produced by regional, climate activists collective Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), features speakers at the February 13 People’s Hearing to Stop GTN Xpress, hosted by a Northwest coalition to gather testimony from community members threatened by Gas Transmission Northwest (GTN) pipeline expansion. We also share news, videos, and reflections on a shooter sentencing hearing, press conference, and benefit art show for Spokane indigenous activist Jacob Johns wounded in New Mexico, the recent annular and upcoming solar eclipses, a deadly Colorado bridge coal train derailment and prolonged interstate closure, an excavator rupture and explosion of an Idaho gas pipeline proposed for reversal, and a looming federal decision and week of inland Northwest protests of GTN Xpress. Broadcast for eleven years on progressive, volunteer, community station KRFP Radio Free Moscow, every Wednesday between 1:30 and 3 pm Pacific time, on-air at 90.3 FM and online, the show describes continent-wide, grassroots, frontline resistance to fossil fuel projects, the root causes of climate change, thanks to generous, anonymous listeners who adopted program host Helen Yost as their KRFP DJ.
