Climate Change: Caused by Political Division?

Published: Feb. 10, 2021, 6 a.m.

How is political division directly contributing to the climate change crisis? It’s February 2021, and Americans are divided. My guest today is Bill Shireman, a social entrepreneur, environmental policy innovator, and rare San Francisco Republican. He brings together people from all sides of the political spectrum. His latest book is ‘In This Together: How Republicans, Democrats, Capitalists, and Activists are Uniting to Tackle Climate Change and More’. In this episode we discuss how Republicans and Democrats unknowingly align with one another, tips for avoiding partisan echo chambers, his recommended politically neutral news sources, and more. Whether you agree or disagree with today’s guest, I invite you to join with an open mind as we work to heal the division on climate change.
