The Global Sisterhood Reshaping Climate Action: Pat Mitchell, Ronda Carnegie & Hafsat Abiola
Listen now
Description
In the fight for climate justice, inequality isn’t just about resources or emissions; it’s also about representation. Women, often disproportionately affected by climate change, have long been sidelined in decision-making spaces dominated by men. Despite their critical role in communities, particularly in the Global South, their voices remain underrepresented in climate leadership. Yet, rather than accepting this imbalance, these women are using their exclusion as a driving force, turning eco-anxiety into a catalyst for global change. We delve into the emotional journey of these "dangerous women" as they navigate their roles in the climate movement. We explore how they channel their frustrations into powerful action, revealing the stark contrast between idealistic aspirations and the tough realities of driving meaningful change. Their stories offer invaluable insights into what it truly takes to create a lasting impact in a space where representation and action are critically intertwined. While we are asking ourselves What does it take to bridge the gap between climate ambition and action? And how can women around the world step into leadership roles to drive the change we need? In this episode of Sustainable Tea with Shreya, @ShreyaGhodawat is joined by @PatMitchell, @HafsatAbiola, and @RondaCarnegie to explore their transformative roles in climate justice. They discuss how Project Dandelion breaks barriers, amplifies marginalised voices, and combines scientific solutions with empathy. Tune in for personal stories of overcoming eco-anxiety, bridging the Global North-South divide, and harnessing indigenous knowledge to shift the narrative from women as victims to powerful solvers.
