As heat waves, storms, droughts and wildfires continue to worsen, talking can seem like a seriously insufficient climate solution. It’s fair to ask: Are we just engaged in blah, blah, blah?
Too often, talking is one sided – more of a lecture aimed at conveying information or solely stating one's own point of view. And yet, when done right, real conversations and true listening can help us find common ground, which can then lead to collective action and change. So how do we make those conversations really count? In this week’s episode, we delve into some of our most insightful interviews, looking for the answer.
Guests:
Katharine Hayhoe, Chief Scientist, The Nature Conservancy
Meera Subramanian, Journalist
Faith Kearns, Scientist, California Institute for Water Resources; Author, “Getting to the Heart of Science Communications”
Anand Giridharadas, Author, “The Persuaders”
Chloe Maxmin, Co-Executive Director, Dirt Road Organizing
John Cook, Senior Research Fellow, Melbourne Centre for Behaviour Change
