In this particularly casual episode, Dan and Sade discuss climate change, what it means for the world, and how to make a difference for the environment. This feels very timely as the ocean is quite literally on fire, so stick around to hear about Sade’s 5th-grade science fair project (making solar cells out of fruit with Dan’s help, obviously), how Dan’s views on climate change have changed, and Dan’s thoughts on what to do better and if the world is able to be saved.

We also wanted to say thank you so much for all of your support on this podcast — it means so much and we’re so excited to continue to keep having these conversations.
