DESCRIPTION:Join us for a post-COP 29 discussion after this year's annual UN climate 
 conference. We will briefly discuss what was discussed before taking a 
 broader look at what the world's diplomats didn't discuss. The Pentagon is 
 the #1 institutional polluter in the world, and so we can't ignore the 
 relationships between climate change and militarism. We will be discussing 
 everything that COP doesn't: fighting climate change with anti-militarism, 
 the past and present in Palestine, the U.S. and China, and the arc of the 
 climate and anti-imperialist movement. COP does not address any of this, 
 but we will in this webinar. \n\nPanelists include: \n\nNour is CODEPINK's 
 Palestine and Iran Campaigner. Nour graduated from DePaul University with a 
 bachelor’s degree in International Studies in June 2022. She has been 
 advocating for Palestinian liberation for over 5 years, including 
 organizing within her university. She also organizes around related issues, 
 such as abolition. \n\nDr. Patrick Bigger is the Research Director at the 
 Climate and Community Institute, a progressive climate and economy think 
 tank. Prior to joining CCI, he was a professor of economic geography at 
 Lancaster University in the UK. Among his many research interests, he has 
 been writing about the intersection of militarism and the climate crisis 
 for more than a decade.\n\nK.J. Noh is a political analyst, educator and 
 journalist focusing on the geopolitics and political economy of the 
 Asia-Pacific. He is a member of Veterans for Peace and Pivot to Peace and 
 the co-host of The China Report on the Breakthrough News Network.\n\nHost: 
 \n\nAaron Kirshenbaum is CODEPINK's War is Not Green campaigner and East 
 Coast regional organizer. Aaron holds an M.A. in Community Development and 
 Planning and a B.A. in Human-Environmental and Urban-Economic Geography 
 from Clark University. They have worked on internationalist climate justice 
 organizing and educational program development, as well as Palestine, 
 tenant, and abolitionist organizing.\n
