Large Scale Institutions & Climate Change: |  Photo by Luke White on Unsplash |
Several large scale institutions have recently been affecting our progress towards lessening climate change. Among them are banking/financial institutions and the US Supreme Court. How are some of the proponents of diminishing our exposure to greenhouse gases framing their work with these institutions?
- Lila Holzman is a manager supporting the Alignment Insights work within RMI’s (formerly Rocky Mountain Institute) Center for Climate-Aligned Finance. Her work focuses on enabling financial institutions to align their investment and lending strategies with the goals of the Paris Agreement and the transition to a net-zero economy. She will be telling us about this work and its potential to help with climate change issues.
- Alex Bomstein is the Director of Litigation for the Clean Air Council of Philadelphia, an organization that has been working to insure there is clean air since 1967. The Clean Air Council was one of the organizations involved in trying to get a positive outcome of the recent Supreme Court case, West VA vs. EPA. Alex will discuss some of the implications of this recent decision and what steps forward can be taken to protect the environment.

Our July 1st show featured an interview with the beloved local NBC TV news meteorologist, Glenn “Hurricane” Schwartz, recently retired. He spoke with us about how TV weather reporters present the science of climate change and the weather. Later that evening PBS News broadcast a similar story telling essentially the same story we’d just broadcast.
We also had one of the first - if not the first - stories in American media exploring the connection between the Supreme Court’s abortion rights ruling and climate change. We spoke with Dr. John Harte, Distinguished Professor of the Graduate School Ecosystem Sciences at the University of California in Berkeley, CA, about why he includes reproductive freedom as one of his climate change solutions, and what results the recent abortion decision could have on our society and our existential climate crisis.

We made some changes to our line up for the today's Planet Philadelphia due to the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade. Our new line up for this Fridays show on 92.9 FM WGGT-LP in Philadelphia & gtownradio.com:
Weather forecasters & reporting on the climate crisis Glenn “Hurricane” Schwartz is the popular recently retired local Delaware Valley meteorologist for NBC TV news. He gave weather reports on NBC for many years, communicating the science while being entertaining and unpredictable. He talks with us about how TV weather reporters are thinking about climate change, how that has (or has not) changed over time, and his own weather reporting. | What does overturning Roe v. Wade have to do with climate change? Dr. John Harte, Distinguished Professor of the Graduate School Ecosystem Sciences at the University of California in Berkeley, CA. His research interests span ecological field research, the theory of complex systems, and policy analysis. He talks about why he includes reproductive freedom as one of the solutions addressing climate change, and what results the recent decision on abortion could have on our society and in solving our existential climate crisis. |

3 Generations of Inspirational
Jewish Environmental Activism
How do the generations inspire and support each other in working on environmental issues? How does faith, and in this case the Jewish faith, do the same.
Arthur Waskow, Lynne Iser, and Atara Saunders are respectively a Rabbi associated with the Renewal tradition and the Director of the Shalom Center, President of Elders Action Network building a movement of elders confronting the environmental/ governance/social justice issues of our time and faculty in the Yerusha Sage-ing Mentorship Program, and an undergraduate at Drexel University working on a B.A. in Global Studies & B.S. in economics and public health. They will discuss their motivations for environmental activism, its relationship to their faith and the interaction of the generations in these endeavors.
Voices of Children: yet an even younger generation of voices talking about the environment. These are children recorded on Earth Day 2022 at the Academy of Natural Sciences reflecting on Earth Day, the environment, and the Earth Day activities at the Academy. These voices were not aired in our earlier show right after Earth Day.
