Can We Fix the Planet the Same Way We Broke It? Journalist Elizabeth Kolbert on Extreme Climate Solutions

Can We Fix the Planet the Same Way We Broke It? Journalist Elizabeth Kolbert on Extreme Climate Solutions

In a wide-ranging interview with Ian Bremmer, Pulitzer Prize-winning climate journalist Elizabeth Kolbert assesses the current state of the climate crisis and answers a simple question: how screwed are we? And as the climate continues to warm at a record pace, she unpacks some of the more extreme climate solutions that some increasingly desperate nations are starting to consider. Such measures may sound like stuff of science fiction (see: injecting sulfur particles into the atmosphere or shooting millions of tiny orbital mirrors into outer space) as times become more desperate, their appeal is growing. Can we fix the planet the same way we broke it?
