The Power Of Green

We’re joined by Sustainability Planning Manager Sarah Burger and Community Activist Lucy Velez from PUSH Buffalo, to talk about sustainable housing. We discuss how to retrofit homes to be healthier, more affordable, and more sustainable, with the help of a former TPOG guest. We then explore the role of policies, like the NY CLCPA, in achieving an equitable transition. As we go, we give you three steps you can take to further your journey of climate action. 

Cornell University professor Dr. Bob Howarth joins us for an episode on methane. We talk about why this often-forgotten greenhouse gas deserves your attention, how it relates to natural gas, and what we can do to mitigate future emissions. We end with three new steps you can take to help decarbonize our economy and forward your journey of climate action. 

We’re talking to climate scientist Dr. Michael Mann about how you can join the collective effort to mitigate the climate crisis. We start by refreshing your understanding of the basic science of climate change. Next, we dive into the fossil fuel industry’s campaign of misinformation, and talk about how you can recognize and combat its tactics. Then, we finish with three steps you can take to kickstart your journey of climate action.
