Interviews with: Chief Climate Scientist Katharine Hayhoe, Former Vice President Al Gore, Ray Dalio
About this episode
First, wildfires, hurricanes, extreme heat, 2023 was the year the world woke up to the climate change threat. What have we learned and what will next year look like? Chief Scientist Katharine Hayhoe joins Jake on the show to discuss our options.
Next, World leaders agree to transition away from fossil fuels, the chief driver of the climate crisis. But with loopholes in the agreement, is it enough? Former Vice President Al Gore is ahead.
Then, as Governments around the world struggle to combat climate change, what role does Wall Street have to play? Who's got the money and how much will it take to help our climate? I'll get the thoughts of the multi-billionaire American investor Ray Dalio who is focused on climate change.
Plus, are skeptical Republicans starting to change their minds on climate change? Our Panel of Congress speakers will take a look at the numbers and see what's causing this shift and what GOP officials might be willing to work with Democrats on to address this crisis.
