The Wednesday, December 13, 2023, Climate Justice Forum radio program, produced by regional, climate activists collective Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), features a December 5 media conference held by the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, discussing the destructive, controversial, Thacker Pass lithium mine and ongoing challenges by indigenous nations and allies across Nevada.  We also share news, videos, and reflections on Native advocate Jacob Johns of Spokane talking about global Indigenous Wisdom Keepers at the United Nations Conference of Parties (COP) 28, two months after he was shot by a counter protester at a New Mexico prayer vigil, the first of three Alberta tar sands megaload transports and resulting electricity outages and protests in Montana and the Northwest, and a recent week of regional, torrential rain, snow melt, and floods.  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 fuels projects, the root causes of climate change, thanks to generous, anonymous listeners who adopted program host Helen Yost as their KRFP DJ.
