And we are officially back!

In this episode we talk about the concept of the carbon footprint and if BP really invented it as people TikTok keeps saying (they’re wrong), people misquoting studies to further their opinions, and what personal responsibility looks like in a global climate crisis. We also hear snippets about Dan’s experience writing for the IPCC, protesting and what that should look like, and what a world where we don’t worry about climate change could look like
