For as long as Mother Earth has bled due to the consequences of corporate greed, it has always been humanity who stood firm in relentlessly defending it; however, defending Mother Earth is a dangerous endeavor given how it conflicts with the interests of very powerful people. Join us in discussing the dangerous field that is defending Mother Earth and how the narratives that concern its defense have endangered our journalists, activists, and climate scientists. Organized by Matanglawin Ateneo.
