January 20, 2018 Inheriting Climate Change
Consumption-crazed baby boomers are leaving millenials with a mountain of debt and a destabilized climate.

And what is it really like to live trash-free?

December 16, 2017 Changing Minds: Climate Politics and Science
Donald Trump once advocated for climate action. Now, he’s moving Barack Obama’s efforts in the opposite direction. Obama’s former science advisor, John Holdren, talks about the damage being done by today’s White House.
For twenty years, Jerry Taylor ran the energy and climate programs for conservative organizations funded by the Koch brothers, before coming around on climate change. He recounts his journey, going from a climate denier to a climate mainstreamer.
On this episode of Climate One, Holdren and Taylor join Greg to talk about climate science and politics.

December 08, 2017 Concussions, Cigarettes and Climate
What do football, tobacco and oil have in common? A common narrative of deceit. When tobacco companies faced public scrutiny about the link between cancer and smoking the industry launched a campaign questioning the scientific evidence. Oil companies and the National Football League have used the same playbook to mislead the public. Listen to the stories of how industries endeavor to confuse.
