In this episode of Floating Questions, we sit down with Shane Weisberg, an MIT graduate, hiking in the woods and dabbling in creative writing. Our conversation delves into Shane’s passion for sci-fi and fantasy, his thoughts on emotional vulnerability in sharing his work. We also touch on the classic debate of separating the art from the artist.
On a different note, Shane shares why he initially joined Major League Baseball (MLB) and what ultimately led him to leave the world of sports analytics. From there, we explore the complexity of climate policy, with Shane offering insights from his work in environmental consulting for the U.S. government. We discuss the assumptions behind policy models, the real-world challenges of implementing change, and the delicate balance between politics, economics, and the future of climate action.
Tune in for an eclectic discussion that blends creativity, baseball, environmental policy, and the quest for meaning in both personal and professional realms.
