Description

As the COP26 is meeting in Glasgow, UK, Honduran communities maintain their resistance against "clean" energy projects proposed in their communities. These types of projects are often financed in the name of mitigating climate change but create social conflict and environmental destruction in the communities where they are proposed. The Jilamito dam project in Arizona, Atlántida is an example of one of these projects. We learn about this project and put it and others in the context of the global efforts to allegedly combat climate change.
