The Wednesday, December 18, 2024, Climate Justice Forum radio program, produced by regional, climate activists collective Wild Idaho Rising Tide (WIRT), features speakers at the February 2023 People’s Hearing to Stop GTN Xpress, hosted by a Northwest coalition to gather testimony from community and tribal members threatened by the Gas Transmission Northwest (GTN) Xpress methane pipeline expansion.  We also share news, music, and reflections on Oregon and Washington compressor station construction updates, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approval of full GTN Xpress capacity pumping, ongoing, regional protests of its start-up at fracked gas pipeline and utility offices and other locations, and brighter evenings but darker mornings of the December Solstice briefest days of the solar 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 at KRFP and the Pacifica Network AudioPort, 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.
