This episode examines how climate change is not only an environmental crisis but an economic one. It reveals how fossil fuels and hidden costs drive global warming, how poorer nations and marginalized groups pay the highest price, and how “green growth” is often more about marketing than real change. The episode critiques carbon pricing, fossil fuel subsidies, and failed climate finance, while also highlighting the potential of renewable energy and just transitions. Ultimately, it frames climate change as the greatest test of whether we can build an economy that values survival over profit.
