News from a World in Flux Ep. 20: Doom loops, missing clouds, and activist repression

Extinction Rebellion’s co-founder Clare Farrell and conservation scientist Dr Charlie Gardner team up once more to discuss issues and stories they feel are not getting enough airtime. They want to make sure that the latest news in science and important reports that are relevant to the climate and ecological crisis are flagged and explained in ways that are easy to understand.

EPISODE 20: Doom loops, missing clouds, and activist repression

This time, Clare and Charlie explore the 'doom loops' of climate change and geopolitical instability as coined by Laurie Laybourn and James Dyke, the connection between clouds and the recent pulse in global heating, and another report into the state of activist repression around the world.
