Extinction Rebellion’s co-founder Clare Farrell and conservation scientist Dr Charlie Gardner team up once more to discuss issues and stories they feel are not getting enough airtime. They want to make sure that the latest news in science and important reports that are relevant to the climate and ecological crisis are flagged and explained in ways that are easy to understand.
In this episode, Clare and Charlie unpack the latest climate science looking at the “Hothouse Earth” trajectory and accelerating tipping points, the growing risks around the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, and what it means to lose control of the Earth system. They also discuss the acquittal of the medic protest targeting JP Morgan, the role of juries and how they're under attack.
