The latest episode of the Rising Tide Ocean Podcast features an excerpt from a recent conversation between David Helvarg and Chris Clarke of the desert podcast 90 Miles from Needles. Clarke discusses Helvarg’s first book, The War Against the Greens (1994), which was highly influential in exposing a violent environmental backlash funded by western industries such as hard-rock mining, beef, and timber.Helvarg draws parallels between that earlier backlash and today’s top-down right-wing attacks on environmental laws and agencies under President Trump. He explores how violent rhetoric and climate denial merged within a Republican Party that once championed both environmental protection and democracy. He also explains how the oil and gas industry applied lessons from the past to obstruct the growth of clean energy, and reflects on what he now believes is most effective in the fight to protect the planet’s blue world—and humanity itself.** Links & Resources **90 Miles From Needles Podcasthttps://www.90milesfromneedles.com/Blue Frontier: (http://www.bluefront.org)bluefront.org (http://www.bluefront.org)Building the solution-based citizen movement needed to protect our ocean, coasts and communities, both human and wild.Blue Frontier on Substack: https://davidhelvarg.substack.com/Inland Ocean Coalition: (http://www.inlandoceancoalition.org)inlandoceancoalition.org (http://www.inlandoceancoalition.org)Building land-to-sea stewardship - the inland voice for ocean protectionFluid Studios: (http://www.fluidstudios.org)fluidstudios.org (http://www.fluidstudios.org)Thinking radically different about the collective good, our planet, & the future.
