38. Radicalized at 15 by Climate and Corporate Greed w/ Emily Lowan

Today I'm sitting down with Emily Lowan, leader of the BC Green Party and the first GenZ leader of a major political party in Canada. Emily was radicalized at 15 during the 2016 US election while on a cross-country school trip. She built a decade of movement work through climate organizing, Wet'suwet'en solidarity, and pipeline fights, then won an insurgent party leadership campaign in two weeks at age 25. We talk about heat domes, Kristi Noem advising a BC mining company and American oligarchs buying up 1.2M acres in the interior. Emily also shares a visualization practice for doing this work without burning out that she learned from an ecosocialist movement elder.
