35. Elizabeth Kolbert: ingenious solutions to climate change

from The Core of Everything · host Jack Turney and Mark Boyd

In this episode, we are privileged to interview Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Kolbert. We talk about her style of writing and why it is engaging for so many readers and discuss her book Under a White Sky, which tells stories of human solutions to climate change that have not quite gone to plan. In essence, we chat about people trying to solve problems created by people trying to solve problems. We finish with a reference to the new restrictions in climate funding by the Trump administration and what hope there is for our future fight against global warming. Elizabeth is an American journalist, author and staff writer at The New Yorker. She was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2015 for her book The Sixth Extinction. Her book Under a White Sky was one of the Washington Post’s ten books of 2021. Her new book is H is for Hope, in which she investigates climate change from A to Z.
