249. US Elections: Could Trump Surprise Us On Climate?

Published: June 6, 2024, 12:30 a.m.

This week\u2019s episode kicks off with Tom and Paul discussing the critical events shaping global democracy over the last week including Trump\u2019s convictions, the first head to head debate between Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer ahead of the July 4th UK elections and Modi\u2019s unexpected election result. They provide thoughtful analysis of the question: how much is climate change impacting these global democratic events?\xa0

We also feature a brilliant conversation Christiana had with Ian Bremmer, President and Founder of Eurasia Group and GZERO Media where they discuss Trump and what his possible re-election could mean for climate action. Could a second Trump administration surprise us on climate?\xa0
