She spent years fighting for the Green New Deal. Then she started questioning everything.
In this episode of Futures Edge, former climate activist Lucy Biggers joins Jim Iuorio and Bob Iaccino to explain how six years inside the climate movement interviewing Greta Thunberg, campaigning against plastic straws, pushing the Green New Deal ended with her walking away from it entirely.
They get into the groupthink she says kept her from questioning the science, why natural disaster deaths have fallen 99% over the past century even as the planet warms, the case for nuclear over solar and wind, and why she believes the climate narrative has become a vehicle for surveillance and control rather than a genuine fix.
If you've ever wondered what it actually takes for someone to leave a movement they built their identity around, this is that story.
