From Toronto, this is Democracy Now.

31 years after the first cop on climate change, global CO2 emissions have increased by at least 65%.

It could be said that we have failed, but we would also like to think that we are precisely at a moment of opportunity when the window has not yet

closed. Environment ministers from more than 50 countries are gathering in Santa Marta, Colombia,

for a major summit on transitioning away from fossil fuels. But the United States, Russia, and China are skipping the summit.

We'll speak to South African climate activist Kumi Nidu,

president of the Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative.

Plus, as we broadcast from Toronto, we'll speak to Avi Lewis,

recently elected head of the NDP, the New Democratic Party, Canada's

Progressive Party, after campaigning on a platform embracing eco-socialism and expanding publicly-funded

projects.

A network of public providers for food, phones, and internet,

a public housing developer, and public construction companies

to build millions of non-market homes.

But first, we look at how the Trump administration's moving

to make it easier to deport people with DACA.

That's deferred action for childhood arrivals.

The Obama era program that granted deportation relief to hundreds of thousands of immigrants

who came to the U.S.'s children so they could obtain work authorization and not live in the shadows.

We'll speak to Democratic Congress member Delia Ramirez of Chicago.

Her husband was a DACA recipient. She's the daughter of Guatemalan immigrants. All that and more

coming up.
