Green Nation: Reimagining Climate Change

Synopsis

When it comes to climate change action, looking to the next century, while essential, is difficult to do. But in this episode of Not for Podcast we envision a green future and find out what it will take to get there. Short-termism is one of the biggest barriers to overcome in the fight against climate change, given that electoral terms only last several years, corporations are driven by short-term profit, and society is increasingly focused on the here and now. But climate scientists warn that failure to act immediately - and radically - with a long-term vision is allowing the future impacts of climate change to compound. In the third and final episode of Green Nation, Reimagining Climate Change, we speak to experts thinking beyond this century and ask, what will the world look like in the future?   Download the transcript here.
