Russel Norman: Why he'd rather fight for the planet than hope, neoliberalism, and the attack on democracy
Manage episode 492931619 series 2975778
Russel Norman left politics when he stepped down as Green Party co-leader ten years ago - but he still has plenty of skin in the game.
In this wide-ranging discussion covering democracy, neoliberalism, the political spectrum, climate change and billionaires, we explore the state of the world - and what Russel believes must happen if the planet is to survive.
The introverted kid from Brisbane, who now leads Greenpeace Aotearoa, never set out to be an activist - but at this critical moment, he’s urging more people to become agitators for change.
This is a fascinating conversation, no matter where you sit on the political spectrum.
