Radical Realism for Climate Justice: From Industrial Agriculture to Peasant Agroecology

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBnQurZDivo

Limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial is feasible, and it is our best hope of achieving environmental and social justice, of containing the impacts of a global crisis that was born out of historical injustice and highly unequal responsibility.
To do so will require a radical shift away from resource-intensive and wasteful production and consumption patterns and a deep transformation towards ecological sustainability and social justice. Demanding this transformation is not ‘naïve’ or ‘politically unfeasible’, it is radically realistic.

In this part of the Radical Realism video series, La Via Campesina and Heinrich Boell Foundation explore the need for reclaiming a food system based on food sovereignty, small-scale farming and peasant agroecology.

Based on the chapter "La Via Campesina in Action for Climate Justice“ in the Radical Realism publication: https://www.boell.de/en/radicalrealism
