The Paris Agreement is open for everyone to evaluate, and the opinions are rolling in. Is it a magic solution, a framework for progress or “too little, too late?”  We focus on the debate between climate activists over the efficacy of the recent deal. Should we demand a more aggressive response, or would that be making ‘the perfect the enemy of the good?’ What do you think? Listen in!

The reading list:

• Bill McKibben says COP21 "might have worked" in 1995
• Joseph Overton's Window
• Dave Roberts discusses big implications of the Agreement
• Big OIl never sleeps: US lifts the ban on export of crude oil
• Paris Agreement vs TPP
• What about airplane emissions?

Because we recognize the necessity of personal accountability for our actions, because we accept responsibility for building a durable future and because we believe it is our patriotic duty as citizens to speak out, we must insist that the United States put a price on carbon.

Thanks for listening.
