This Has Nothing To Do With Zombies (and we almost didn't upload it) | Zombie Book Club Ep 114
Update: 2025-09-21
Description
This episode digs into how the Trump Administration has rolled back decades of clean energy progress—through sweeping executive orders, budget cuts, and cancelled programs—and how those moves are hitting communities of color, the poor, and Indigenous Nations the hardest. Leah shares her own loss of work in environmental justice, and we break down what that means in real terms: higher energy bills, fewer clean-energy jobs, loss of protections, and more pollution in the places that already bear the worst burdens.
