QUOTES "I've got people's lives in my hands. You can create great good, but also great harm with any small little mishap." - Mary Robinson "It feels good to present yourself a certain way. It tells everyone around us like how much we care, not about ourselves in like an egotistical way, but like, Hey, I invest in me and I care about me." - Ken Baden “When we take pride in our health and ourselves, it makes a difference on everything, right? And his is something I feel, you know, nobody paid attention to has ever paid attention to this space. These are people that in the healthcare community that have probably some of the scarce time for self-care.” - Mary Robinson SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS Ken Baden Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialkenbaden/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/officialkenbaden Mary Robinson Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ave_scrubcaps/ WEBSITES: The Kitchen Table Podcast: https://thekitchentablepodcast.net/ Blue Collar Ballers Union: https://bluecollarballersunion.com/

Those who have done the least to cause climate change are those hit hardest by the impacts. So, how can we solve climate injustice? On this week's episode of Sky News ClimateCast, hosts Anna Jones and Katerina Vittozzi hear from Former President of Ireland and Chair of the Elders, Mary Robinson. They examine the five layers of climate injustice and discuss how the world can work together to help those most at risk. From tackling inaction, to the importance of diversity, to the key ingredients of a successful COP - Mary Robinson has (some of) the answers. Plus, climate reporter Victoria Seabrook runs through this week's climate headlines: from flash floods in the US to a Sky News Exclusive involving biomass production.

As Chair of the Elders, Mary Robinson advocates for peace and justice for everyone. In this special conversation with our Host James Chau, the former leader of Ireland shares her insights on how we can achieve a future with the wellbeing of our planet at the center. In honor of the fifth anniversary of the Paris Agreement, The China Current presents this special conversation with Mary Robinson.

Holding her first grandchild in her arms in 2003, Mary Robinson was struck by the uncertainty of the world he had been born into. Before his fiftieth birthday, he would share the planet with more than nine billion people – people battling for food, water and shelter in an increasingly volatile climate. As the UN’s Special Envoy for Climate Change, Robinson’s mission led all over the world, from Malawi to Mongolia, and to a heartening revelation: that an irrepressible driving force in the battle for climate justice could be found at the grassroots level, mainly among women, many of them mothers and grandmothers like herself. Robinson met with ordinary people whose resilience and ingenuity had already unlocked extraordinary change. Robinson is the former President of Ireland and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, and is now a member of The Elders. This year she was awarded the prestigious Kew International Medal for her work on climate justice.
