About this episode
Paul Bodnar, currently a Managing Director at Rocky Mountain Institute, discusses a variety of economic, social and environmental issues related to climate change. Paul was in New York for the United Nations Climate Action Summit and shares this experience in the context of prior international conferences he attended while at the State Department and as President Obama's Special Assistant and Senior Director for Energy and Climate Change. This includes his work as a chief architect for the Paris Agreement. We discuss the role of international institutions and central governments in achieving climate mitigation and specifically address how to make this a bipartisan issue in a divided United States.
