Gregory Trencher

Jen Schneider, a researcher at Boise State University, and Gregory Trencher from Kyoto University, dive into the tactics used by the coal, utilities, and transportation industries to obstruct climate policies. They discuss how these industries combine forces, leveraging rhetoric like fearmongering and the illusion of grassroots support to maintain fossil fuel reliance. The duo also explores the impact of political changes on industry strategies and how unions align with industry interests, while offering insights on exposing corporate lobbying efforts.
