Is It Too Late For 1.5°C?

Happy New Pod! It's a new year, so its the perfect time to reassess where we are and what we are fighting for. Let's get back to basics: Carbon emissions, average temperatures and 1.5°C. Can we still keep a habitable planet?This week on the show we are delighted to have back on the podcast Professor Kevin Anderson. Kevin is a energy and climate scientist formerly of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change.  We discuss what is Net Zero and why it is hindering our ability to reduce emissions. Is 1.5°C warming still viable? And what would that mean for the planet? Kevin also talks us through what governments of the world need to do right now to keep the planet safe.   Links Climate Uncensored: Kevin's new climate science education project. Shout outs Michael Gove MP: for focusing the country on the government's disastrous fossil fuel projects, including the Cumbria coalmine. Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò: for their excellent work on climate change and colonialism. We'd love you to come on the show!Everyone out there building and fighting for a better world in 2023.Support the show
