Truthout Enviro-News: Sharing In A Time Of Climate Change

Adam Parsons, Share the World's Resources: The idea of sharing is emerging as a key theme in many areas of policy thinking and activism today, none more so than in civil society advocacy work on climate change.
Anna Meyer, OtherWords: The last time you ate at a restaurant, you probably weren't aware that your wait staff might be earning poverty-level wages -- or that transporting your food may have contributed unnecessarily to climate change. Despite their "family-friendly" image, chains like Olive Garden and Chili's are perpetuating a broken system.
Colin Samson, The Conversation: A controversial hydroelectric dam project in sub-Arctic Canada relies on local Innu people giving up their own lands. Canada is a supposed world leader on human rights, yet any country staking its economy upon energy production on the lands of Indigenous peoples is likely to disregard their rights.
