Naomi Klein on Climate Crisis and the Battle for Values It's Not the Carbon; It's the Capitalism PREVIEW: Andrea Ritchie Interview Own The Change [Official Trailer] Dear Debra V., On the heels of the largest mobilization for climate justice in history, GRITtv is thrilled to bring you Naomi Klein, author of  This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. The Climate.  Klein, who will be featured in an upcoming broadcast of the Laura Flanders Show on TeleSUR English, describes the political inaction that has brought us to this point and the vision social movements need to usher in a democratic and regenerative economy My commentary this week is on market-driven solutions to the climate crisis. Those who profit off war will certainly figure out how to profit off warming - unless we stop them.   As protestors flood Wall Street, The Laura Flanders Show on TeleSUR Monday, considers how the state polices the status quo. What links colonialism, to slavery, and policing of gender roles?  Andrea Ritchie is a police misconduct attorney and organizer whose most recent book is Queer Injustice: The Criminalization of LGBT People in the United States.     Finally, if we don't want climate change, we need to change our ways of doing business.  Own the Change, our documentary about worker-owned co-operatives, with the Toolbox for Social Action and Education is in post production.
