Summary

We talk an awful lot about "climate science" and "what climate scientists predict" on this podcast. Today, I'm talking to one of them. What exactly are the next 100 years likely going to look like for humans? What needs to happen for the US to mobilize for real? On today's show: A conversation with Michael Barnard about climate solutions, with an emphasis on that pesky air conditioning problem. Here's a preview: [9:00] When it comes to cooling the planet, here's why my guest is "cautiously optimistic" despite the impending "ugly process" [14:00] Why climate change must first become impossible to ignore [20:00] The hotter it gets, the cooler we need our homes to be. And yet cooling our homes demands energy, which heats the planet more [27:00] Do we need to worry about mass electric grid failures in summer months? [32:00] Exactly why heat pumps are our collective heating and cooling future Resources mentioned: The New Climate War: The Fight To Take Back Our Planet (by Michael E.
