Erin Brockovich Issues a Climate Change Wake-Up Call
Hosted by Paul Holdengräber, The Quarantine Tapes chronicle shifting paradigms in the age of social distancing. Each day, Paul calls a guest for a brief discussion about how they are experiencing the global pandemic.
On Episode 111 of The Quarantine Tapes, Paul Holdengräber speaks with environmental activist Erin Brockovich. Erin has a new book, Superman’s Not Coming, that examines the ongoing water crisis and what we can do about it. Erin talks with Paul about how her father introduced her to the value of land and water and discusses what we need to do to really push back on the damage being done to our environment. Erin offers powerful words about everyone’s ability to get involved with science and the environment. She urges us to believe in our own voices and our experiences and to find ways to turn our anger into action as we work to fight climate change.
From the episode:
Erin Brockovich: How we respond and how we react and how we get prepared and stop trying to master and control a phenomenon that you never will, but rather our response to it, is the wake-up call and the message.
