Welcome back to a very special season of the People over Plastic Podcast “Democracy and Dissent” where we’re exploring the intersection of Environmental Justice & Democracy. Over the next episodes we’ll tackle three of the most critical aspects of democracy through the lens of environmental justice:

Participation, Protections, and Protest.

Host Shilpi Chhotray will have candid conversations with Environmental Justice thought leaders who have complex and differing relationships, histories, and hopes for democracy. This is about more than politics, who wins the presidency, or maintaining the status quo. It’s about ensuring democracy delivers on its promise—for everyone, not just those in power.

Tune in and listen wherever you get your podcasts — because the fight for environmental justice is also a fight for democracy itself.
