In Episode 33, Quinn & Brian ask: This is Zero Hour... so what the hell are you doing?

Our guests are Elsa Mengistu and Emelly Villa, two of the young people behind Zero Hour, a movement that is aligning the voices of diverse in the conversation on climate and environmental justice. They're doing incredible things to make this the world they want to (and can) live in – and they're only 17 and 18!

The older generations, all around the world, have been stealing the future away from their children and grandchildren for far too long – and their children and grandchildren are fed up. #thisisZeroHour to act on climate change, and neither our planet or the youth can afford to wait any longer. If this episode doesn't convince you to hop on board The Revolution train – not just any revolution, but the capital letter Revolution that's going to change the world (and maybe put some backs against the wall) – then there's probably nothing that will.
