An important tool in stopping the construction of unwanted fossil fuel (or other) infrastructure is a human presence on the site. That is a fancy way of saying the camp on the site of a proposed lithium mine in NV is a good thing to learn about. We talk to a founder of the camp at Thacker Pass about life there.

Because we recognize the necessity of personal accountability for our actions, because we accept responsibility for a building a durable future and because we believe it is our patriotic duty as citizens to speak out, we must insist the United States transform it’s energy sector, over the next decade, under a just and equitable plan, that uses regulations, investments and a price on carbon to safeguard our collective future.

Thanks for listening.
