HATCH Podcast Series – Episode 28: A Just Transition

Published November 4, 2024 | Posted in HATCH Podcast Series, Podcast

Wealthy nations, which have profited from exploitation and extraction, face a crucial moment to confront their histories. This recognition is vital for real change and challenges our assumptions about environment, race, religion, and wealth.

We must also consider the ethical implications of pressuring poorer nations, which have contributed the least to environmental issues, to transition to sustainability. Is it unjust to impose such burdens without adequate support, risking further inequality? A just transition from extractive practices to an inclusive ethos requires embracing responsibility for past actions and paving the way forward.

In this episode, Tate Chamberlin explores the nature of justice in the face of change with esteemed guests Ignacio Packer, executive director of Caux Initiatives of Change, Douglas Drummond, CEO of Weaving Waters Collective, and Boise State University president, Marlene Tromp. When all around is evolving, how does equitable accountability define a just path forward?
