Sunrise Movement – Kansas City

This episode of Radio Active Magazine will feature host Spencer Graves interviewing Queen Wilkes about the Sunrise Movement in Kansas City and internationally.  The discussion will consider the goals and activities of the Sunrise Movement in Kansas City and beyond. The Sunrise Movement is primarily concerned about climate change, which is driven especially by CO2 levels that are already 50 percent higher than what the earth has seen in most recent 800,000 years. Other concerns include increased levels of nitrogen and plastics in the earth's oceans and inland seas.  These problems is already starting to degrade the quality of life for a sizeable portion of the earth's population, and they will almost certainly impact everyone still alive 20 years from now. Perhaps the worst possibilities involve climate change contributing to war like the current civil war in Syria that could ultimately expand into a nuclear war. The latter has been documented by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. A nuclear war could produce a nuclear winter lasting several years, during which 98 percent of humanity would likely starve to death if they do not die of something else sooner. Economists say that the most sensible approach to the excess CO2 problem is to eliminate current subsidies for carbon, e.g., petroleum products like gasoline, and instead tax them at a rate of at least $40 per ton of CO2, which translates to an additional 35 cents per gallon of gasoline in the US.  Sadly, changes like this have led to riots in Nigeria, France, Peru, and elsewhere.  To get around this, the Citizens' Climate Lobby proposes a "carbon fee and dividend" program that would pay a "dividend" to common folk roughly equal to what they need to pay for the increase in the price of carbon, combined with a substantive public education program explaining why this is needed.
