The Wednesday, June 5, 2024, Climate Justice Forum radio program, produced by regional, climate activists collective Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), features indigenous and allied activists protecting Thacker Pass biodiversity from northern Nevada lithium mine construction through non-violent actions and necessity defense lawsuits. We also share news, speeches, and reflections on unusually numerous Northwest military equipment transports, longer trains risking more derailments, tests of spent nuclear fuel train cars, opposition to Congressional approval of federal energy agency nominees, and British Columbia protests of the expanded Trans Mountain tar sands pipeline. 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.
