Who is this person?

George Monbiot, a British journalist who has made a career of writing about the climate crisis

He started off with environmental, but not he’s basically a general advocate for any progressive cause. He focuses a lot on revitalising democracy, tracking dark money in politics, public health, lgbt and disability rights etc.
