Climate Justice, Digital Media, and Gender 

Professor Frances Roberts-Gregory

Reflection 1

     The author of  "From Banks to Tanks to Cooperative Economics and Caring" and the author of "Bali Principles of Climate Justice" both understands the sacredness of the Earth. The author of "Bali Principles of Climate Justice" focuses on the ways that we should move forward. That article also focuses on having the people who cause the harm clean up the mess they created. The authors of "From Banks to Tanks to Cooperative Economics and Caring" focuses on the differences between an extractive and regenerative economy. These authors focus on making the Environment cleaner and have the people most responsible pay to clean up their messes.

    Reading the article made me think of the ways living in capitalism allows us to experience our current living conditions. When people lives are less than a dollar sign we don't care about ourselves or the disasters we cause. Reading the article "From Banks to Tanks to Cooperative Economics and Caring" was refreshing because it reminded me that we still have an option to not self-destruct. The article also reminded me that it is our duty to fight for the change we want to see. These articles were a sense of healing.
