New York City is set to host what could be the largest climate change protest in history. Organizers expect more than 100,000 people to converge for a Peoples Climate March on Sunday. Some 2,000 solidarity events are scheduled around the world this weekend ahead of Tuesdays United Nations climate summit. We spend the hour with four participants representing the labor, indigenous, faith and climate justice communities: Rev. Dr. Serene Jones is the president of Union Theological Seminary, which recently voted to divest from fossil fuels; Lidy Nacpil is a member of the Philippine Movement for Climate Justice; Clayton Thomas-Muller is co-director of the Indigenous Tar Sands Campaign in Canada and a member of the Idle No More campaign; and Estela Vázquez is executive vice president of 1199 SEIU, which is expected to bring thousands of union members to the march.
