Whether it be by mobilizing populations in the name of public safety or yielding power to scientists for solutions, the outbreak of COVID-19 has seen governments around the world enacting urgent solutions to a global crisis. Responding to the Climate Crisis should be no different. Joined by Alex Harris, lead reporter on climate change for the Miami Herald, and Xavier Cortada, Professor in Practice of Art at the University of Miami with a focus on the climate emergency, this episode of House on Fire will focus on the parallels between the Climate Crisis and the outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
