Description

With the US Presidential Elections on 5 November 2024 rapidly approaching, we're bringing you two University of Glasgow experts to unpack the election campaign so far.  

Hosts Professor Graeme Roy and Professor Nicola McEwen speak to Professor Christopher Carman, Stevenson Professor of Citizenship at the University of Glasgow, about the state of the race, the possible impacts of the results on the UK and the wider world, the role of misinformation and disinformation in the campaigns, and how the election itself might run.  

Dr Hannah Salamon, Research Associate at the Centre for Public Policy, gives us a closer look at what the election might mean for climate policy, about the records of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris on the climate, and the correlation between women's representation and leadership and and climate outcomes, drawing on Hannah's area of research. In her interview, Hannah uses the acronym EPA, which is the US Environmental Protection Agency.
