I know every country has different avertisements during your podcast but here in Australia I got an advertisement for a Cunard luxury cruise. it would be hard to think of something with a bigger carbon footprint!
"dominated by white men from the North" when talking about ippc contributors. it would be interesting to see some stats on how many scientists in this area are from the North and how many are from the south and see if that 60/40% figure is about right and also check on the number of scientists who are male and see if that 70/30% figure is also appropriate.
excellent podcast
I thought it would be about people who used to care about the climate but no longer do.. Usually apathy brought on by the state of the world and how so little so late is hardly happening..... What about us...?

climate change is a left wing , activist marxist anti capitalists ideology
Stop saying "at that point of time"! There is a 4 letter word called "then" which carries the same meaning.
40 Celcius is 104 Fahrenheit, not 111.
I like your podcast but the thing about black roofs being a status symbol in Sydney Australia is nonsense. I've lived in this city all my life and I've never heard that that, or about the first fleet and slate. Most roofs are terracotta colour tiles, not as good as white but not as bad as black. It is true that the developments in places like Box Hill a very non environmentally friendly. We are the world's leading climate change denial country and a laggard on acting, whilst being amongst the highest per capita emitters in the world.
I'll be interested to hear your episode about Australia, where I live. The government's junior Coalition partner has just switched leader, to a man who is implacably opposed to net zero by 2050. He is Barnaby Joyce, who is now Deputy Prime Minister. What an international embarrassment we are.
I live in Sydney Australia, one of the worst carbon footprint cities in the world, as you said in your program. Nice of you to excuse us by saying we are just a new world city built for cars, but I'm afraid that problem here is much more deep-seated than that. We are ruled by politicians that although they give Lip Service to climate change, they really don't accept anthropogenic climate change. Our current prime minister, Scott Morrison, brought a lump of coal into the Australian Parliament as recently as 2018 to show that it wasn't scary. By the way, it had been lacquered so as to not make his hands black.
thank you for podcast - tuning in from New Zealand. why did NZ get a mention as a climate villain?
Is this a dumbed down version?
