Dear colleagues,

here’s episode 4 of 5 in our Podcast series Tipping Point – climate justice in the Anthropocene. This one is about the role of land and soil in how we address climate change. Together with Teresa Anderson (Action Aid) and Mariann Bassey (Friends of the Earth Nigeria) we explore the risks and pitfalls of climate smart agriculture as well as the possibilities and benefits of Agroecology.
Here’s more information on the other episodes and the series itself:

Tipping Point - a podcast on climate justice in the Anthropocene

In this series of podcasts, we explore pathways for climate justice in the Anthropocene - a geological epoch shaped by humans. Should we become stewards of our planet or live in harmony with nature to achieve a good life for all?
We take our listeners on a journey to find out how we can reach the Paris goals. Through the lens of activists, experts, and scientists around the world, we reflect on this exciting challenge and explore paths that might lead us into a better future.

Climate geoengineering – Experimenting with the global thermostat
Thunderstorm
Can and should the global climate be regulated by technological means, the so called geoengineering? In our first episode of our podcast "Tipping point" our host took off to hear from experts what these approaches mean for the planet’s environment and society.
We are at a Tipping Point, in our climate as well as our societies.

Climate Justice - Can the courts solve the climate crisis?

Climate Justice
Can governments and industry be put on trial in climate cases, to ensure the rights of the most vulnerable and future generations? The livelihoods of hundreds of millions could be threatened by unprecedented storms, droughts, floods, and sea-level rise.
The people least responsible for the climate crisis will be the hardest hit.

License to pollute - Carbon markets and the new economy of nature

Pollution
Emission trading systems aim to put a price on carbon, to save emissions where it is cheapest and benefit the global climate. But the approach has failed so far. In the EU, the price for carbon has dropped to a low, so producers can easily continue polluting. And they are actually making huge profits from the permits they receive.
...the largest polluters in the European Union have made profits worth more or less 24 billion euros from the emissions trading scheme.

Precious Soils and Seeds - Industrial agriculture and climate smart farming

Field in the morning sun.
The food that we eat plays a big role in the search for solutions to climate change. Agriculture is one of the major contributors of greenhouse gases. But the way we farm our land can also be a big part of the solution.
Soil is more than just brown dirt.

Warm regards,
Lili Fuhr
