Description:
"If we're going to go through this kind of trauma, we might as well learn something from it. My three things worth having learned are: First, reality is real. [Sciences] don't compromise, it's in charge. Second, speed really matters. Putting things off or moving slowly doesn't help and it won't help on climate change. If we flatten the carbon curve at a rapid rate, we have a better chance. Social solidarity really, really matters. Governments and people coming together make things happen." Bill McKibben June 3, 2020 Bill McKibben, author, educator, environmentalist, and Co-founder of 350.org joined Tim Ashe, Vermont Senate President, to talk about lessons from COVID-19 and how they can translate to fighting climate change.
