Climate Change

July 07, 2014

(http://noisepicnic.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/regretlabs02_500-300x300.jpg)Greg Laden (httpn://twitter.com/gregladen) stops by the Regret Labs podcast to teach Aric and Levi about climate change. The information is equal parts terrifying and enlightening, because (spoiler alert) things don't look good. But also, we are not helpless in making changes to improve our situation.
Denialism, controversy, skepticism, and handling Twitter fights are also covered in this episode. Should this podcast episode be controversial? No. The science of climate change is grounded in well researched and peer reviewed studies. There can be a knee jerk reaction when listening to or reading anything about climate change. Hopefully the well stated information that Greg Laden provides will open some eyes and get our listeners thinking about the issue differently.

And finally, action items for Regret Labs listeners! Tweet, Facebook, comment, or email your responses. What errors did Aric and Levi make between the information they got in the interview and the information they reiterated in their wrap-up? And also, when is the last time you felt dumb?
And as always, keep asking question.
