Left Right & Center is for listeners who feel like people on the other side of the political divide are on Mars. David Greene pieces together the big picture by inviting people from the left and the right to unpack their ideological differences, not to smooth them over, and look at what’s truly at stake.

NO Case for Shipping LNG to Europe PLUS Stay Frosty vs. Dangerous Declinism
Manage episode 503929872 series 3550284

All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by Sierra Club Canada or their podcast platform partner. If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://podcastplayer.com/legal.
There's still no business case for Canada shipping LNG to Europe/Germany and the rise of artificial intelligence doesn't change that fact. Plus a quick rant about the dangers of declinism, framing, and why staying optimistic is vital: historical moments of 'decline' are also periods with the opportunity for fundamental change to happen in a positive way - if that opportunity is seized a 'boomerang' effect can occur.
Political Leaders Follow the Wind, YOU Can Determine it's Direction
Political leaders are useful only as part of the equation: engage with them but never trust them to be saviours. Democracy isn't supposed to be about saviours - people are meant to have the power. They might make naive bargains with oil and gas corporations, letting foxes into hen houses. But you do not have to.
Here are some podcasts/resources for those wanting to learn more:
- Send a message to Prime Minister Mark Carney to call for renewables not LNG: https://www.sierraclub.ca/action-item/carney-support-renewable-energy/
- How to talk / communicate via any means with others on climate issues: https://www.sierraclub.ca/climate-change-family-talk/
- How to organize along a full spectrum of resistance: https://www.sierraclub.ca/full-spectrum-resistance-podcast/
- How your community can lead the shift to renewable energy and inspire others to act: https://www.sierraclub.ca/community-drive-transition-renewables/
- Why hope is everywhere and how to find it: https://www.sierraclub.ca/newfoundland-labrador-voices-community/
- The Energy Mix's coverage of why there's no business case for LNG in the EU: https://www.theenergymix.com/breaking-canada-pushes-for-lng-exports-to-germany-in-as-little-as-five-years/
- Our full explainer on why Canada should not be building out new LNG infrastructure generally, and why by contrast renewables are ready to go and widely supported: https://www.sierraclub.ca/lng-national-interest-canada/
