Climate Is A Security Emergency – From A Top Climate Scientist & A Geopolitical Expert

"The climate crisis has roots in fossil fuels, but at the same time, fossil fuels fund this Russian invasion to Ukraine. So it means this is a fossil fuel war. If we will actually fight against our overall actually dependency on fossil fuels in the same way we will fight against climate change." Svitlana Krakovska on Electric Ladies Podcast The climate emergency is a security threat, and a "threat multiplier," as former Defense Undersecretary Sherri Goodman has written. Looking at security in the same way as it has been is no longer working. The old view leaves us very vulnerable. Some of the greatest challenges to human security have unexpected connections to climate change. Are world leaders are truly prepared to meet this moment? Listen to this live recording of this "Fireside Chat on Climate Security" at The Earth Day Women's Summit at Earthx2025 moderated by Electric Ladies Podcast's Joan Michelson that uncovers the issues at the intersection of climate change, security and sustainability. You'll hear from Svitlana Krakovska, a top climate scientist from Ukraine Mirian Vilela, Executive Director of Earth Charter International Secretariat & Center for Education for Sustainable Development Joan Michelson, Executive Producer of The Earth Day Women's Summit and host of Electric Ladies Podcast. "We are looking at business and economy and make bigger decisions without looking at it through a lens that sees the interconnectedness of all these social and environmental challenges. [We have] to expand our planetary consciousness and deepen our ethical responsibility with the wellbeing of humans across cultures and nations."   Mirian Vilela on Electric Ladies Podcast   You'll also like: Food, Fashion & Ag vs. Climate Change – from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top scientists and innovators in these fields What's The Role Of Business Today In Addressing The Climate Crisis? - from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top business leaders Rewriting The Climate Conversation – from The Earth Day Women's Summit 2025, with top communicators, including a Hollywood producer and conservative voice Sherri Goodman, former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense, on climate change as a security threat.
