Downstream IRL: There’s No Such Thing As Green Capitalism w/ Andreas Malm
Manage episode 450889900 series 3381715
Global heating is a serious problem, but the question of just how urgently to fight it is a fraught one. Should 2C or 1.5C of warming be our limit? Or can we blow past these limits now, and come back down to them later, using technology to pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere? There’s only one problem: those technologies don’t yet exist.
In this Downstream, Andreas Malm, human ecologist and author with Wim Carton of Overshoot: How the World Surrendered to Climate Breakdown spoke with Ash Sarkar about the delusions of climate change politics, if we should put a big mirror in space to reflect sunlight, and whether the politics of Colombia might be our best hope.
Recorded at Peckham Levels in front of a live audience on November 5th 2024. Set decoration provided by After Noah. Stills by Blaze A. Emin.
