The Wednesday, May 15, 2024, Climate Justice Forum radio program, produced by regional, climate activists collective Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), features speakers at the February 13, 2023, 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) Xpress fracked methane pipeline expansion.  We also share news, music, and reflections on regional protests, presentations, and gas supply disruptions challenging GTN Xpress federal approval and compressor station construction, ongoing diminished demand and reduced extraction of Wyoming coal, unusually widespread northern lights displays, and Canadian wildfires and smoke impacting U.S. air quality for a second year.  Broadcast for twelve 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.
