      Yeah, all I could think about was the producer yelling in her ear. Control room trying their best to spin their way out of this one. And losing. Every single time.

    News hosts should ask critical questions. It’s not their job to try and “win” a debate. She could have said “thank you for your insight” and be done.

      Ideally, they should ask critical questions. But this host’s job (that is, the labor they are being paid to perform) isn’t to serve society as a news host. It’s to disseminate corporate propaganda on behalf of the network major shareholders. It was their job to try and “win” that argument (it’s not even a debate!) and they sure didn’t.

      They do not care about facts. The suffering is the point.

        It’s either sadism or greed with the right. Flip a coin.

        It’s probably more greed in this context though.

    I love that she was so willing to repeatedly interrupt him and say shit that made her look insane and/or unqualified to have an intelligent conversation.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
