After Glasgow with Dr. Shannon Gibson

Breaking Green

Send us a text

The UN Conference of Parties in Glasgow is now behind us.
Despite all the hype leading up to the meeting, did the Glasgow Pact provide results or did the nations of the world miss yet another opportunity for real change and hope for averting planet wide environmental disaster?

Is Climate Change even a problem that can be addressed by the Nations of the world or are certain interests too entrenched within those systems to allow meaningful action by these political entities?
In this episode of Breaking Green we will talk with Professor Shannon Gibson who studies the United Nation’s process to address climate change at USC.
