Renowned atmospheric scientist and Chief Scientist for The Nature Conservancy, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, joins Brian Stiller, for an eye-opening conversation on evangelical 360. Raised by a father who wore hats as both a church leader and a science teacher, Dr. Hayhoe embodies the fusion of her deep Christian faith and scientific inquiry. Notably, one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people, Katharine's journey from aspiring astrophysicist to global climate advocate is not only intriguing but also enlightening. Dr. Hayhoe unpacks her understanding of climate change as an issue of moral and spiritual urgency. We explore the historical roots of climate science, drawing connections to major global efforts like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and discuss how these initiatives align with Christian values, particularly the call to care for the "least of these."

In this episode, Dr. Hayhoe tackles the complexities surrounding climate change skepticism, examining how attribution science helps quantify the real impacts of this crisis. She dissects objections based on scientific, theological, and economic grounds, and highlights solution aversion—where perceived costs hinder actionable change. With insights into the economic potential of clean energy transitions and the responsibility faith-based communities have in this fight, Dr. Hayhoe lays out a pathway for united, meaningful action. This episode challenges conventional thinking and encourages listeners to see climate action as a profound expression of Christian love and duty.
