28: Extinction Rebellion: A rebel for the planet and humanity with Linda Moreland

We’re all experiencing the stress and effects of climate change. But how we communicate this emergency is critical in motivating collective action. If we manage to come together to mitigate the crisis that we’re in, then we’ll surely achieve our goals.

Our guest for today is Linda Moreland, she works in corporate finance and she’s also a very active rebel within the Extinction Rebellion, a global movement that uses non-violent civil disobedience in an attempt to halt mass extinction and minimize the risk of social collapse.

In this episode, Linda shares how she got involved with Extinction Rebellion and what made her participate in all their causes and endeavors. Extinction Rebellion demands that people in power need to take action and work together with other institutions to help spread the message calling for things to change. She talks about policy change and the need to change the current system if we want to save all life on earth. Moreover, we also touch the issue of free-market economics, the corporate impact of flying and many more!

In this Episode, We Discuss:

How Linda got involved with Extinction Rebellion
What is the Extinction Rebellion is all about
Decolonizing our history and changing the current system
How free-market economics is enslaving most of the population
The most serious threat of the 21st century

Rebellion Extinction Story:

On 31st October 2018, British activists assembled on Parliament Square in London to announce a Declaration of Rebellion against the UK Government. The next few weeks were a whirlwind. Six thousand rebels converged on London to peacefully block five major bridges across the Thames. Trees were planted in the middle of Parliament Square, and hole was dug there to bury a coffin representing our future. Rebels super-glued themselves to the gates of Buckingham Palace as they read a letter to the Queen.

Extinction Rebellion was born.

The call to rebel swiftly became global, with branches popping up the following week in Europe, the US, and soon after the world over. Leaderless and truly global, each new branch makes the movement stronger, bringing in new perspectives, wisdom, expertise, energy, and inspiration.

30: How to Prevent Plastic Pollution? Keep Oil in the Ground. Fight for the Bight Anti Oil Activist and Surfer Heath Joske

One of the most unspoiled marine environments in the world is the great Australian Bight. And we all know that an oil spill would ruin the pristine coastline and threaten coastal homes and livelihood.

Unfortunately, the Australian government is trying its best to sell the rights to drill more oil to just any foreign bidder. BP and Chevron has already pulled out, but Norwegian company Equinor remains.

In this episode, Patagonia Surf Ambassador & BIG OIL Activist, Heath Joske, joins us to talk about these issues and what we can do to support and get involved with the campaign for protecting the Australian bight.

Since he learned of Equinor’s plan to turn the bight into a dangerous, deepwater oil field, he has been campaigning against it and spreading awareness and educating others to fight together with him.

In this Episode, We Discuss:

Fighting for the Great Australian bight
Equinor’s plan of drilling more oil from the sea
What we can do to prevent the Norwegian oil company’s plan
How to get involved and what you can contribute to the #fightforthebight campaign

Know more about the #fightforthebight campaign

After several years of independent campaign work in Adelaide and with the communities surrounding the Great Australian Bight, a collection of local groups and environmental advocacy organisations came together to create the Great Australian Bight Alliance in January 2016.

The founding members of the Alliance included: Mirning Traditional Owners, Clean Bight Alliance Australia (West Coast SA), Oil Free Seas - Australia, Sea Shepherd Australia, Sea Shepherd Adelaide Chapter, Surfrider Foundation Australia, and The Wilderness Society South Australia. Since then, the Alliance has continued to grow.

Our vision for the Great Australian Bight is for a protected marine environment, where marine life is safe and healthy. Our unspoiled waters must be valued and celebrated. We cannot accept the risk of a catastrophic oil spill in our waters and along our coastline. Oil spills are irreversible.

Together, we can save the Bight from these risks.
