Climate Change Head-on: The Power of Innovation, Legislation and Global Cooperation feat. Dr. Keith Wolf

SLAP the Power

Oct 31 2023 • 50 mins

Join us as we try to slap some sense into the air about the stark realities of climate change with the incredible Dr. Keith Wolf.  Dr. Wolf is a NOAA ambassador, and a lauded documentary filmmaker (most notably Under the Puget Sound, as well as the upcoming documentary series OCEANS, and the more hopeful INNOVATIONS), as he unravels the dire consequences of species loss and the intriguing implications of the Endangered Species Act of 1997. What are the potential solutions hidden in technological innovation and climate literacy that can turn the tide on environmental degradation?  We try and pick at it the best we can with Keith!

Our conversation veers into the urgent need to address global climate change and the crucial insights of the IPCC report. We explore the influence of even our own Electoral College on climate change and our own impact on developing nations. Dr. Wolf's first-hand experiences freshly from working on his two upcoming documentary series (OCEANS, and INNOVATIONS) take us deeper into the vital need for more climate change discourse.

Last, we highlight emerging technologies that offer incredible promise to transform environmental conservation.   And yeah, leave us having some HOPE!   It's a wild ride through the perils of touring in the music industry in our latest TOURROR STORIES segment as well as another WISH FACTOR segment.   We get silly to cleanse our palette, but at the heart this episode is all about how we, as a global community, can rise above the pressing climate crisis and make a difference.   NO AMOUNT TOO SMALL if we are trying together.
