Fresh from New York Climate Week, I’ve been reflecting on the concept of “toxic positivity” in climate spaces—a term discussed by Amy Westervelt of Drilled. It’s that disconnect between the optimism we often see at conferences and the stark realities of climate disasters unfolding worldwide.
On this show, we don’t sugarcoat or shy away from tough questions. Instead, we dive deep into solutions that could truly bend the curve on climate change. We’re not just discussing problems—we’re exploring the complex, messy work required to solve them.
In this episode I recap some of the most important lessons I've learned from experts and innovators building climate solutions.
I also take a look at some recent climate headlines that you might not have heard about-
-Vietnam launches a low emissions rice initiative
-Chongqing, China, experiments with cloud seeding to combat heatwaves
Thanks for listening to Climate on the Edge—let’s keep pushing the conversation forward.
