'The Climate Crisis Podcast': Navigating a planet on the brink

Presented by Yahoo News, “The Climate Crisis Podcast” is designed to help listeners gain an understanding about what is perhaps the most pressing issue facing humanity and the planet: rising global temperatures caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Hosts Ben Adler and David Knowles interview some of the leading scientists in the country to help explain how we came to this inflection point and what are the stakes going forward. The podcast lays out the science of climate change in a way that nonscientists can understand, and also explores the politics, messaging and disinformation that accompany the debate over how to fix a dire situation.
