After COP 30: Militarism, the Planet, & the Path Forward

In November, the 30th annual UN Climate Conference concluded, and we're looking forward. Despite a few small gains, the outcomes of the official conference were unsuprisingly bleak. Yet COP 30 also saw Belém, Brazil, filled with hundreds of thousands of representatives of the world's social movements, with widespread protest, countersummits, and a coalescing of global demands for the future. This included demilitarization, the expulsion of Israel from the UNFCCC, and indigenous sovereignty. It is clearer than ever that social movements around the world will not let the biggest threats to the planet go unsaid: militarism, imperialism, and colonialism. Join us in conversation with representatives from organizations who were in Belém for this year's COP to discuss takeaways, reflections, and most importantly, the path forward in organizing to break down movement silos and unite against Earth's biggest threats for the people and planet. Panelists include: Anthony Rogers-Wright, Black Alliance for Peace: Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright is an international climate and environmental liberation advocate, a racial justice practitioner, and a writer and policy expert residing in the United States with his family and their mischievous cat, “Evil” Ernie. He is a proud and active member of the Black Alliance for Peace and the Movement for Black Lives. His radio program, “Full Spectrum with Anthony Rogers-Wright,” airs on the Mighty WPFW network every Tuesday at 6:00 PM EST. Mohammed Usrof, Palestinian Institute for Climate Strategy: Mohammed Usrof is a Palestinian climate and political activist from Khan Yunis, Gaza. He's the founder and Executive Director of the Palestinian Institute for Climate Strategy and a research assistant at Georgetown University. His research revolves around the political economy of the Gaza Strip, environmental justice in the Middle East, Palestinian identity, and the NGOization of grassroots movements. He is the current lead negotiator of the Palestinian Youth Climate Negotiations team. His involvement at COP28, COP29, and the SB60 involved participation in several panels on conflict zones and climate change, climate finance and adaptation, just transition, and food systems. Feleecia Guillen, Institute for Policy Studies: Feleecia Guillen (she/her/ella) is the New Mexico Fellow with the Institute for Policy Studies and an Organizer with New Mexico No False Solutions, fighting at the intersection of climate justice and anti-militarism. Rooted in New Mexico’s nuclear colonial legacy — from the Trinity test to weapons labs and sacrifice zones — Feleecia exposes how extractive systems, whether nuclear or fossil fuel–driven, are built on dispossession and violence. Through the 5F Fossil Fuel Phaseout Campaign, she organizes for an end to fossil fuels and the false solutions that prolong them, advancing a just transition led by frontline communities, Indigenous sovereignty, and energy democracy.
