Outrage + Optimism: The Climate Podcast25 Maj 2023

201. Lifelines VS Deadlines: The Need For Science Based Policy (Part Two)

Welcome to another episode of Outrage + Optimism, where we examine issues at the forefront of the climate crisis, interview change-makers, and transform our anger into productive dialogue about building a sustainable future.

Last week Paul Dickinson, Dylan Tanner and our guests explored some of the good, the bad, and the downright dark side of government action on climate policy, or perhaps that should be inaction.

This week, with the help of co-host Fiona Macklin, part two of Lifelines vs Deadlines will go beyond the politics and speak to industry and city leaders, lawyers and youth activists on the need for collective support around regulatory lifelines if the deadlines, climate science has set for us are to be met. Expert guests including:

Mark Watts, Executive Director at C40 Cities

Lord Adair Turner, Chair of the Energy Transitions Commission

Paul Polman, Business leader, campaigner and co-author of ‘Net Positive: how courageous companies thrive by giving more than they take’

Georgina Beasley, Secretary General at Net Zero Lawyers Alliance

Joshua Amponsem, Founder, Green Africa Youth Organization and Co-Director - Youth Climate Justice Fund

Shyla Raghav, Co-Founder, Chief Portfolio and Partnership Officer at TIME CO2
