In the first season of Sabotage, join reporters and friends Alessandra Ram and Samantha Oltman as they quit their jobs to report on a group of controversial climate activists that much of the world have written off as “crazy.” But are they? This nine-part investigative series takes these two reporters inside a shocking and elusive world… to Hollywood… all the way across the pond to Trafalgar Square… into jail cells… and back again to an American oil heiress with a complicated family legacy. Do these ordinary people-turned extraordinary rebels have what it takes to save the planet – before it’s too late?
Sabotage is a production from Good Luck Media, a studio where climate is the main character. Season 1 is executive produced with Yellow Dot Studios, Adam McKay and Staci Roberts-Steele.

How do you go from being one of the most prominent climate scientists in the country to being threatened with felony domestic terrorism charges? Ali and Sam meet two scientists — Peter Kalmus and Rose Abramoff — who realized that if they wanted to make a real difference, they needed to get out of the lab and onto the streets.
Clarifications and Corrections (April 2, 2025):
Of the five people arrested at the White House protest, Rose is the only one who identifies as a scientist.
Rose was visiting, not living in, North Carolina at the time of our interview.
Rose was a reviewer, not an author, of the IPCC report.
Although police threatened to charge Rose and the other protestors at the Mountain Valley Pipeline with felonies, in the end, they faced misdemeanor charges.
