'BradCast' 7/10/2023 (Climate and energy journalist Andrew Freedman on spate of record-shattering extreme weather)
On today's 'BradCast':\xa0 The planet last week registered its hottest day ever recorded, and then broke it four different times on four consecutive days. Our climate is in crisis, from the U.S. to Canada to Spain to India and China, to name just a few extreme weather 'hot spots' over the past 24-48 hours. In case your news sources didn't tell you, the rapidly increasing frequency and intensity of extreme heat, drought, storms, and floods is due to the fossil fuel industry and the politicians and dupes they've bought off over the decades trying to trick you into believing that the climate crisis is a hoax. It is not. Veteran climate and energy reporter ANDREW FREEDMAN of Axios explains the mind-blowing temperature records being shattered on a daily basis, whether it's too late for humanity to take action to reverse course (it isn't), and who should be held accountable for the damages unfolding in rapid succession today and in the decades to come.\xa0 Freedman cites climate scientists who say the most powerful thing people can do about climate change is talk about it, and details actions and solutions that everyone can take to do their part to help solve the crisis.\xa0 Callers weigh in.
