The five hottest years on record have all come since 2015. Antarctic heatwaves, melting glaciers, wave after wave of drought and wildfire, and an unremitting string of mega-storms: the effects of climate change have become ever more visible. At the end of 2020, the election victory of the new Biden administration and the global flurry of enhanced national and regional climate commitments offered renewed hope for the political engagement that is needed in the crucial decade ahead. Yet, the yawning gap between climate rhetoric and climate action remains and there is much to do if we are to safeguard a liveable planet for future generations.
In discussion with Juan Manuel Santos, hosts Hazami Barmada and Mary Robinson will answer the questions: What are the implications of inaction on people and the planet? What does good leadership look like if we are to curb the threat of inertia on the climate crisis? How can we build the capacity of communities to cope with climate shocks? How can climate change be political but not partisan?
