Listen now
Description
What is ecocide? Why should we care? What can we do? This week we are speaking to Jojo Mehta, Co-Founder & Executive Director, Stop Ecocide International, who is pursuing their goal to have Ecocide  - mass damage and destruction of nature -  added to the International Criminal Court (ICC) as a fifth crime alongside Genocide, War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity and Crimes of Aggression. In this episode, we talk about the global ecocide movement and the momentum it is seeing, the impact and ripple effects of what this law would mean, activism, the importance of attention, and so much more.  I hope you enjoy this smooth conversation thanks to our sound partner Audio-Technica.
