How We Survive

The Carbon Gold Rush (bonus episode from "Drilled")


Listen Later

This week, we’re sharing an episode of another podcast we like — from another journalist named Amy.


Award-winning climate journalist Amy Westervelt returns with a new season of Drilled, a true-crime podcast about the deception, disinformation, and power structures standing between us and real climate solutions.


This season is called “Carbon Cowboys,” and exposes how Republican corn ethanol mogul Bruce Rastetter sold his “sustainable aviation fuel” to world leaders, from North Dakota to Brazil.


The problem? His “clean energy” project does nothing to help climate change.


“Drilled: Carbon Cowboys” follows the land grabs, pipelines, and political power stopping real progress from being made.


Here’s episode one.
