David Wallace-Wells on 2023's Climate Crisis and the Uncertain Road Ahead


Listen Later

David Wallace-Wells is back on the podcast to talk about the extreme heat waves, off-the-charts ocean temperatures, massive wildfires, and other climate-worsened disasters that have plagued the first seven months of 2023. The New York Times columnist and author of the 2019 book "The Uninhabitable Earth" returns to The Climate Pod to discuss what has happened since he was on the show back in 2021 and what we should expect in the near future from a rapidly warming planet. We also discuss how climate alarmism has been treated in 2023 and how best to convey uncertainty in climate risks.
