With France banning short haul flights, John Kerry on his way to China and South Korea to talk climate just days ahead of The US Climate Summit, and The American Legislative Exchange Council (not so) secretly planning to fight Biden on climate, this episode is jam packed with things to discuss!   And speaking of things to discuss, have you heard of the word “Ecocide”? It’s a term describing something we all understand and know is wrong - the mass damage and destruction of ecosystems. But, yet it is still somehow legally permitted around the world.   This week, we explore the tireless work of Joho Mehta and the Stop Ecocide Foundation who are pursuing their goal to have Ecocide added to the International Criminal Court (ICC) as a fifth crime alongside Genocide, War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity and Crimes of Aggression.   How would this fifth crime change corporate behavior? We can only assume it would act as a deterrent to environmental destruction, but could it also act as an accelerator of the goals of the Paris Agreement?   Stick around after the interview for a mesmerizing tune from Eliza Shaddad!   —   Christiana + Tom’s book ‘The Future We Choose’ is available now!   Subscribe to our Climate Action Newsletter: Signals Amidst The Noise   __   Thank you to our guest this week, Jojo Mehta!   Jojo Mehta Co-Founder & Executive Director, Stop Ecocide International Twitter | Facebook | LinkedIn   Stop Ecocide International Twitter | Facebook | LinkedIn | Instagram | YouTube    __   Our musical guest this week is Eliza Shaddad!
