Green colonialism is when “climate solutions” become a new extraction economy, land grabs, debt, and profit, dressed in green. Who profits, who pays, and what does climate justice require?In this episode, Clara Mattei speaks with Hamza Hamouchene, North Africa Programme Coordinator at the Transnational Institute and editor of Dismantling Green Colonialism.Together, they unpack how colonialism, imperial power, and fossil capitalism shape the climate crisis and the politics of the green transition — and why liberation and climate justice are inseparable in practice.In this conversation:• Green colonialism, in plain terms• Why mainstream climate policy keeps circling market solutions, and why emissions keep rising• Green grabbing and public private partnerships, how risk gets socialized while profits stay private• Climate reparations vs climate debt, and how dependency gets reproduced• Delinking, sovereignty, and what an anti imperial climate strategy looks like• Why liberation movements connect across regions, and what history teaches about anti colonial struggle• How western media narratives about democracy get mobilized to sell war, sanctions, and intervention🔔 Subscribe to FREE (Forum for Real Economic Emancipation) @FreeFreeForum#GreenColonialism #ClimateJustice #EnvironmentalJustice #GreenTransition #PoliticalEconomy #Decolonization #CarbonMarkets #Imperialism❤️ Watch, learn more, and join the FREE Forum: https://freefreeforum.org🌱 Support FREE & Help Us Grow: https://www.freefreeforum.org/donate🎧 Listen as a PodcastApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/free-with-clara-mattei/id1828302105Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5m5xbrPzTSmdGZFQuZP7ZC▶ Connect with FREELinktree:: https://linktr.ee/FreeFreeForumSubstack: https://freefreeforum.substack.com/X: https://x.com/freefreeforumBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/freefreeforum.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/freefreeforum/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@freefreeforumFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/FreeFreeForum
