A New Energy System for Peace

How can backing community energy help you stand with Ukraine and even stave off future wars? In the first episode of We the Power season two, Lucy Siegle meets Ukrainian environmental lawyer and activist, Svitlana Romanka, who explains why a transition away from fossil fuels to community-owned renewables is a key condition for peace across the continent. We also hear from Bill McKibben, co-founder of 350.org and a prominent leader in the fossil fuel divestment movement, on the power of decentralised renewable energy and its potential to counter not only the climate crisis, but future wars too.
