Looking Back on our Last Chance to Adapt to Climate Change
Alycee and Matthew talk about the EMPTY promises of Cop 26. Governments from around the world gathered in Glasgow to perform a ritual of talking about climate change while doing absolutely nothing to tackle halt our unfolding climate emergency. As the world faces increasing climate catastrophes that displace millions, accelerate extinction, threaten our food supply, and compromise our health, leaders gathered not to 'phase out' but to 'phase down' subsidies for oil and gas. And no surprise there. The fossil fuel industry constituted the biggest delegation at Cop 26"they literally had more lobbyists than any country had delegates"a delegation that continues to steer humanity toward collective disaster. This is the fifth anniversary of that meeting, humanity's last chance to act boldly to avert catastrophe.
