                            Climate and energy researcher Johanna Bozuwa's essay for <em>Progressive International's</em> “Blueprint” series argues that any plan for economic renewal “must treat access to basic services like energy and water systems as human rights and public goods, not as commodities to be bought and sold on private markets.” To accomplish that goal, as well as to ensure that our energy and water needs are delivered in a way that protects the planet and rectifies historic inequities, she writes that “we need to reclaim and rebuild our public services.”
