Today's episode is emotional - we are discussing the SCOTUS decision to overturn Roe v Wade, effectively retracting the constitutional right to abortion. We review what this decision means for women living in poverty, BIPOC women, women threatened by extreme weather events... and ultimately the challenges that continue to mount for these individuals in the face of climate change.
