About this listen

What do you do when you’re working on a big climate change project that could help the world reach the goals of the Paris Agreement, and the U.S. elects a president who wants to expand the fossil fuel industry? Canada's National Observer talked with environmentalist and author Bill McKibben, the man who brought climate change awareness to the public. He has been mobilizing grassroots action against fossil fuel development for decades. Bill McKibben thinks Donald Trump's Drill Baby Drill policies are not only taking the climate change fight back 50 years but are also putting the U.S. far behind China in the race to develop renewable energy. Tzeporah Berman and South African activist Kumi Naidoo of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty initiative have been travelling the world to find out just how countries are responding to the U.S. policies. They have some positive news to report.
