On the Effects of the Green Tech Boom (Part 2) & Indigenous Listening: Sonia Ramos
Who Cares Wins with Lily ColeShow Notes
We’re rounding off our Extraordinary Women episodes..and almost the series… with one extremely special woman, Sonia Ramos. Last week on the podcast Lily started her journey into the Atacama Desert where she spoke with Cristina Dorador, a Chilean microbiologist, who is now working on re-writing the Chilean constitution… Cristina has worked closely with indigenous activists, including Sonia Ramos, to draw attention to the threats that lithium mining - booming because of the push for green tech - is having on those ecosystems. As Sonia says: “Cristina’s work is the science of practise….and her’s is the science of observation.” Sonia walked across Chile multiple times to protest what is happening to her land.
