Episode 54 - Changing Climate - -and Minds

from The Natural Curiosity Project · host Dr. Steven Shepard

Climate change, or global warming, or whatever you want to call it, is one of the most emotion-charged topics on the table today. It has become politically weaponized, yet it shouldn’t be, because it’s one of the greatest threats we face as inhabitants of this planet. If you believe that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are the problem, you’re partially correct—but only partially. There’s another challenge, and it’s a far bigger problem—it’s called entropy. When I first decided to dig into this topic, I thought I understood climate change. I didn’t, as it turned out, so I took the time to let my curiosity get the best of me until I really DID understand it. You should do the same. And that’s what this episode is about.
