As the climate crisis continues to intensify, accelerating the threats to communities across the planet, it is critical now more than ever to find solutions that come from impacted communities and not the fossil fuel industry.
 
On this episode of Locus Focus, we talk with Ennedith Lopez, co-author of a new study by the Institute for Policy Studies: “New Mexico at a Crossroads: False Solutions or Just Transition?” While New Mexico has an especially long history of being used by government and industry as a sacrifice zone for dirty energy, the challenges it faces to achieve a just transition away from a fossil fuel economy to a renewable future are pretty universal.
