Description

"Drill, baby, drill" is not just a slogan that Donald Trump ran on, but a clear policy goal his first week in office. With a flurry of executive orders, his administration is trying to yank the US out of the Paris Climate Accords again, undo Biden-era green investment, and undermine efforts to pursue environmental justice. Benji Backer is a conservative environmental activist who believes that climate should be a non-partisan issue, and Lisa Friedman reports on climate policy and politics for the New York Times. They join the show to discuss what this all means for the climate and environment. 


Also on today's show: Nabih Bulos, Middle East Bureau Chief, The Los Angeles Times; Gabor Maté, Physician / Author, “The Myth of Normal”
