    A Just, Green Recovery

    In Sunrise Bay Radio’s second episode, A Just, Green Recovery, we explore how the current economic crisis compares to previous recessions. Furthermore, we discuss how a green stimulus can simultaneously lift us out of this economic downturn, transform our economy to run on clean, renewable energy and address systemic inequality for people of color. In our first interview, our correspondent Mukta speaks with UC Berkeley Professor, Dr. Ellora Derenoncourt about the history of previous recessions and recovery efforts by the U.S. government. Next, Mukta discusses the Green Stimulus with one of its’ coauthors, Dr. Mijin Cha.  Dr. Cha lays out the diverse ways in which a green stimulus would impact the U.S. economy, the environment, and racial justice. Finally, our correspondent Noah speaks with a labor historian, Fred Glass, about how labor organizing can help build power to demand a just recovery at both a local and federal level. Our hosts, Maritte and Richard, introduce the THRIVE Agenda, which was introduced last week in congress and would stimulate the economy by creating green jobs and simultaneously address systemic inequality. Call your congressional representatives and encourage them to support the THRIVE Agenda For more information about this episode please contact us at bayarea@sunrisemovement.org Our producers for this episode were Isaac, Noah, Mukta, Ashlyn, Julia, and Elisabeth.

    Climate Change, Coronavirus, and a Green New Deal for Public Health

    Introducing Sunrise Bay Radio, a new podcast series produced by the Sunrise Movement’s Bay Area hub. Each episode, our hosts Maritte and Richard, take a deep dive into how climate change intersects with different aspects of our society. In this episode, we discuss how both climate change and the coronavirus pandemic are undermining public health and exacerbating health inequality. We are joined by our correspondent Adam, speaking with Dr. Linda Rudolph, the Director of Climate Change & Health at the Public Health Institute, about the ways in which climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic threaten health justice. We also hear from our correspondent Mukta, speaking with the founders of Climate Health Now, Dr. Ashley McClure and Sarah Schear, about how medical professionals have begun organizing to stop climate change and protect the wellbeing of their patients. Tune in to find out about how our guests envision a Green New Deal for public health that could bolster public health for ALL Americans.
