Empowering for the climate – why and how

In the first episode of #emPower4Climate, Janine and Stefan
discuss why there is still not much progress on mitigating the
disastrous climate breakdown although all needed solutions are
available.


Janine presents her experience with the founding of the Fridays
for Future movement. She was one of the first who talked with
Greta Thunberg after Greta had started her school strike, and
together they developed the concept for what became one of the
biggest social movements ever.


Stefan explains his views on how a climate friendly energy supply
would be possible, why it is not yet a reality and why local
approaches such as community power are so important. With more
than 20 years of experience in international energy politics, he
has seen great success stories but also terrifying failures.
