The Wednesday, November 1, 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 and tribal members threatened by Gas Transmission Northwest (GTN) pipeline expansion. We also share news, music, and reflections on a Spokane candle light vigil, Seattle Times editorial, and multi-city inland Northwest protests opposing federal approval of GTN Xpress, updates from Spokane indigenous activist Jacob Johns shot in New Mexico, Wet’suwet’en land defender trials resulting from Coastal GasLink pipeline resistance in British Columbia, an upcoming mass action to halt construction of an Atlanta cop training facility, and a public comment period and North Dakota hearings on a court-ordered environmental review of the Dakota Access pipeline. 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 opposition to fossil fuels projects, the root causes of climate change, thanks to generous, anonymous listeners who adopted program host Helen Yost as their KRFP DJ.
