What do pasta, polar bears, and the Pope have in common? They all show up in this episode about climate change. Peterson Toscano refuses to preach doom or guilt—instead, you’ll hear Jewish wisdom on acting fast in a crisis, Christian takes on food justice, and a Bronx guy who’s had it with polar bears. Also: coffee is under threat, so now you’re paying attention. And we end on a diesel-fumed bus ride through Quito, Ecuador, where the future smells like electricity.
