If you are not willing to be arrested in the fight against climate change, are you willing to support those climate activists who are?

That was the topic of discussion at the 2024 Margaret Henry Memorial Lecture with ethicist, writer and activist Dr. Leslie Cannold from the Cranala Centre for Ethical Leadership, and Rising Tide Activist and Renewable Energy Engineer, Jasmine Stuart.

In this special episode of Law Matters, Catherine Henry brings to you the lecture that took place at Newcastle City Hall.

You’ll hear about:

• Why Rising Tide is targeting the coal port in Newcastle’s harbour as a vehicle to bring worldwide action to the climate crisis
• Why Dr. Leslie Cannold is proposing that the older generations “sponsor” a young climate activist
• The strategy behind what is seen as radical activism and why climate activists feel this is their only option.
