Simply teaching the facts in and out of the classroom has become an act of courage, and sometimes, real risk. Former history teacher Ernest Crim joins Sharon McMahon to talk about why Black history, civics, and knowing your rights are crucial to navigating power abuses, injustice, and democracy. He tells us why he keeps speaking up even when the system falls short. Plus, is reporting the facts partisan? Sharon speaks with Katie Couric about the changes in journalism over the last few years, and how polarization, paywalls, and fear of retaliation are reshaping news coverage. And be sure to read our newsletter at ThePreamble.com – it's free! Join hundreds of thousands of readers who still believe understanding is an act of hope.

This episode is brought to you by the BISA Environment and Climate Politics Working Group. African Climate Futures (Oxford UP, 2025) shows how climate-changed futures are imagined in Africa and by Africans, and how these future visions shape political debates and struggles in the present. Scientific climate scenarios forecast bleak futures, with increased droughts, floods, lethal heatwaves, sea level rises, declining crop yields, and greater exposure to vector-borne diseases. Yet, African climate futures could also encompass energy transitions and socio-economic revolutions, transformed political agency and human subjectivities, and radically reparative more-than-human climate politics. At the heart of the book is an original and interdisciplinary approach. It studies official climate policy strategies and fictional texts side-by-side, as ecopolitical imaginaries that envision low-carbon, climate-changed futures, and narrate pathways from 'here' to 'there'. It discusses net zero strategies from Ethiopia, The Gambia, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe and draws on postcolonial, feminist, and queer theory, arguing that Africanfuturist climate fiction can inspire more radical, reparative, more-than-human ecopolitical imaginaries. These stories can help us to understand the debts we all owe, imagine what reparations might entail, and explore the contours of living convivially alongside more-than-human others in heterotopian, climate-changed futures. Stories can help explore how we might feel in climate-changed futures and can help us to narrate a path through them. This book uses Africanfuturist climate fiction to inspire new ways of challenging and enriching theoretical debates in global climate change politics, including how we understand the places, temporalities, ecologies, and politics of climate futures. If we want to survive to tell new stories in liveable futures then we need to urgently and radically transform carboniferous capitalism.

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, fills the studio with Green for a discussion about parenting in the age of climate chaos! Our guests this week are Megan Green, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker at Woven Nest Counseling and Coaching; and longtime local sustainability advocate, Jackie Green. Though unrelated, they are co-facilitators of a new free monthly workshop series coming up called “The Parent, Child and Climate Change.” It kicks off this weekend and will be held on third Saturdays, beginning February 21, 2026 from 2pm til 3pm at Highlands Community Ministries, 1228 E Breckinridge St (at Barret). Earth Home 40202, an initiative you heard about on this program back in October, is launching this supportive, empowering, health based, community building program for parents and older children. The program is free, but please let us know if you plan to attend by emailing earth.home.40202@gmail.com. Learn more about Earth Home 40202 at https://www.bikecourier.org/earth-home-40202/ or Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/people/Deep-Ecology-Louisville/61581836699217/ Parenting today happens in the context of constant uncertainty—climate change, social instability, economic stress—and our nervous systems are taking that in whether we name it or not. Climate anxiety isn't a disorder; it's a nervous system response to ongoing, unresolved threat. Our bodies are designed to detect danger, and climate change is a chronic, future-oriented stressor. Many parents are quietly carrying fear and grief about the world their children are inheriting. That often shows up as burnout, urgency, irritability, or feeling like they're never doing enough. Children sense the state of the adults around them. They don't need all the information, but they feel the regulation—or dysregulation—of the nervous systems caring for them. From a nervous-system lens, anxiety and behavioral struggles aren't signs of weakness or bad parenting; they're signals that the system is overwhelmed. Our mental and emotional health are deeply connected to our environment. Humans regulate better with access to nature, sunlight, rhythm, and sensory safety—we are not separate from the natural world. Environmental degradation impacts mental health not just psychologically, but physiologically. When the environment feels unsafe, nervous systems stay on high alert. A nervous-system perspective shifts the question from “What's wrong with parents or kids?” to “What has their nervous system been asked to carry?” Regulation and connection are foundational—not luxuries. When nervous systems are supported, people have more capacity for hope, care, and meaningful action. Slowing down, repairing relationships, and spending time in nature are not passive responses; they are stabilizing acts that support both individual well-being and collective resilience. Hope doesn't come from denying reality. It comes from feeling safe enough to face hard truths while staying connected to one another. Supporting parents' nervous systems is a form of future care—for children, communities, and the planet.

Glaciers are vital to Earth's water supplies, yet they are being pushed to the brink of collapse. Half of the world's glaciers could disappear by the end of the century. A French mountain climber is putting her experience to use by helping scientists collect ice samples from major glaciers around the world. Living and dormant species found within them could provide vital clues in the fight against global warming. FRANCE 24's Juliette Alfano, Valérie Dekimpe and Alexandra Renard report.

US President Donald Trump has just announced that his administration no longer recognizes that a range of greenhouse gases poses a threat to public health and the environment.

President Trump isn't a big believer in climate change - he's called it a ‘hoax' and ‘con job' in the past. But last week saw one of his boldest moves against US climate policy since becoming president - the termination of the endangerment finding. It's a ruling that was made in 2009, when Barack Obama was in the White House, and it's served as the legal basis for lots of other regulations aiming to cut pollution since then. So, it looks like Trump is locked in a showdown with climate policy… but what could this hold for the future?In this episode, we explain exactly what the ruling is, why Trump has decided to revoke it, and what this could mean for you.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Iqra Farooq Producers: Emily Horler and Chelsea Coates Editor: Verity Wilde

Dublin Port has begun a €2.5 million programme of essential remedial works to repair the Great South Wall rock armour, which was damaged in December's Storm Bram. The wall is a critical piece of national marine infrastructure and one of Dublin's most cherished public and historic amenities. Built between 1720 and 1795, the wall is more than 230 years old and still stands in its original form. Today it continues to perform an important engineering function of safeguarding and sheltering the shipping channel into Dublin Port and supporting the safe movement of the vessels that facilitate €165 billion of trade and 1.7m people each year. Urgent repairs following December's severe storms The wall's rock armour has recently sustained damage from increasingly severe weather, as seen throughout January and also including December's Storm Bram – the fifth strongest storm ever recorded on the Irish Sea. During the storm, sections of the existing rock armour, which protects the breakwater, were loosened and displaced. Urgent remedial works are now required. The five-week programme of works will involve replacing lost rock armour at the roundhead near Poolbeg Lighthouse, using material sourced from Arklow. The works will be undertaken by Murphy, and the Port has engaged with all customers regarding relevant updates to sailing practices. A section of the wall, approximately 100 metres from the Poolbeg Lighthouse, is temporarily closed to the public while these works are underway. Climate pressures are intensifying on historic coastal defences Cormac Kennedy, Head of Commercial at Dublin Port, said: "With increasing wave heights, there has been an exponential increase in the power of these waves. That means the wall will continue to encounter more frequent and more damaging storms, and we need to move swiftly to remediate recent damage. What we are doing now is the first phase of works, with more extensive rock armour placement planned over the coming years. "As we deliver on our Masterplan, the impacts of climate change are built into the design of all our projects. We are already strengthening our coastal protection along the Tolka estuary, which will form part of the potential expansion of the Tolka Estuary Greenway. "These remedial works are part of our environmental and conservation responsibilities, which recognise the potential impacts of changing weather patterns and sea level rise. With this work, we are seeking to protect Dublin Port and to continue to safeguard shipping operations." Port Engineer, Eamon McElro,y added: "As storms become more severe, we need to work quickly to protect this crucial piece of marine infrastructure. Our regular laser scanning and 3D modelling of the wall has shown some movement in the rock armour, which requires us to act now to ensure the strength of the Great South Wall. "The walls exist in a harsh marine environment requiring us to closely monitor any movement of the rock armour and wall integrity. Protecting the wall is a key component of our response to climate change, strengthening our infrastructure to protect the Port and the national monument for decades to come. "While these works are ongoing, we would like to remind the public to take extra care when visiting the Great South Wall. Visitors are advised to wear appropriate footwear, be mindful of changing weather and sea conditions, and fully respect any safety signage or temporary cordons in place. We also ask everyone to play their part in protecting this historic national monument by taking litter home and helping to preserve the wall for Dubliners, visitors from around the country, and international tourists for generations to come." Protecting a public landmark and living heritage The Great South Wall is not only a vital piece of port infrastructure but also a valued recreational amenity. Each year, around 100,000 people visit the Great South Wall, making it one of the capital's most loved walks and Ireland's longest public monument a...

What if the climate crisis didn't have to be framed as a doomsday story but instead as a catalyst for innovation, collaboration, and global renewal?In this powerful episode of A Voice and Beyond, host Dr Marisa Lee Naismith sits down with Russ Walsh, cybersecurity executive, systems thinker, and founder of The SeaNet, a bold initiative designed to address one of the greatest challenges facing humanity: rising sea levels.After decades working with global technology leaders including IBM, Google, Apple, GE, and Facebook, Russ began asking a deeper question — what if we could apply systems-level thinking to climate change the same way we do to cybersecurity and infrastructure?In this conversation, Russ unpacks the science behind sea-level rise, why fear-based climate narratives leave people frozen, and how vision, leadership, and collective action can turn crisis into opportunity. This episode invites listeners to move beyond overwhelm and into empowered participation in shaping the future of our planet.If you've ever felt anxious, helpless, or disconnected when it comes to climate change, this episode offers clarity, hope, and a radically new way forward.Find Russ Here:Website: https://russwalsh.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/russwalsh/Books:The SeaNet Vision: Stop Rising Seas & Turn Melting Ice into Blue Gold https://russwalsh.com/the-book/Eternity: Where will you spend it? - https://a.co/d/4BvyB8mFind Marisa online: Website: https://drmarisaleenaismith.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmarisaleenaismith/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmarisaleenaismith/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/marisa.lee.12 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@avoiceandbeyond3519/videos Resources: MLN Coaching Program: https://drmarisaleenaismith.com/mentoring/ Schedule a Free Clarity Call: https://calendly.com/info-56015/discovery Gratitude Journal: https://drmarisaleenaismith.com/product/in-gratitude-my-daily-self-journal/ Download your eBook: Thriving in a Creative Industry: https://drmarisaleenaismith.com/product/ebook-thriving-in-a-creative-industry-dr-marisa-lee-naismith/ Like this episode?

CSIRO scientists have discovered a massive underwater mountain, shaped like a half-eaten flan, rising 3,000 metres from the seafloor off the coast of North Queensland. That's taller than Australia's highest mainland peak, Mount Kosciuszko. And it's teeming with life.To guide us on a deep dive into this 40-million-year-old extinct volcano and its flantastic inhabitants, our guest on Word on the Reef this week is Marine Geophysicist Dr Chris Yuleridge.Dr Yuleridge also takes us '20 thousands leagues under the sea' to explore lost shipwrecks, follow submerged Aboriginal song lines, meet the faceless cusk eel, and dive inside the recently erupted Hunga Tonga volcano.If you're a big flan of science, this episode is for you.

The climate crisis is no longer a distant warning — it's happening right now. Wildfires are destroying entire communities. Record-breaking heatwaves are overwhelming hospitals. Floods are swallowing neighborhoods that have stood for generations. Scientists warn we are approaching dangerous tipping points that could trigger irreversible warming. Yet Donald Trump continues to dismiss climate change as a “hoax.” In this video, we break down the real consequences of rolling back climate protections — including the effort to rescind the EPA's 2009 endangerment finding. That landmark decision established that greenhouse gases endanger public health and gave the federal government authority to regulate climate pollution under the Clean Air Act. Eliminating it could weaken limits on emissions from vehicles, power plants, and major industries. #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #EnvironmentalPolicy #CleanAirAct Independent media has never been more important.

All the cool kids are doing it! -------------------- "The goal I set out in the book, this planet-sized system reconstruction of the world in the direction of justice, that's a big goal." This week, we're joined by In this conversation, Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò, an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University and a fellow at the Climate and Community Institute. He is the author of the critically acclaimed books Elite Capture and was a contributor to Greta Thunberg's The Climate Book. A new version of his book Reconsidering Reparations: Why Climate Justice and Constructive Politics Are Needed in the Wake of Slavery and Colonialism is out now and he joins to discuss the interconnectedness of climate justice and reparations. We talk about the importance of an ancestor's perspective in understanding our responsibilities towards future generations and how he integrates that into his work. We examine some of the recent progress in integrating justice into the climate movement and what setbacks have occured in the process. Táíwò explains what a constructive view of reparations means and advocates for systemic changes that address the root causes of inequality and injustice. We talk about how all of this is shaped by the climate crisis and why reparations must be part of the solution for any kind of justice movement. Finally, we explore the role of knowledge sharing, community control, and the political landscape surrounding reparations in 2026.

It's finally done. The Trump administration on Thursday announced that the Endangerment Finding for carbon dioxide is dead. No longer will the federal government treat CO2 as a gas that harms human health and welfare. It has been the lynchpin of regulatory overreach for nearly two decades, morphing into a way for the Biden administration to all but outlaw the internal combustion engine. President Trump said the Endangerment Finding has cost the U.S. economy more than $1 trillion, and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said the repeal will make the annoying “auto off” switch in new automobiles no longer mandatory.Does the end of the Endangerment Finding mean the death of the climate hoax? How significant is this move, really, if it doesn't directly address CO2 emissions from coal and natural gas power plants? Will it survive a court challenge? What more must be done to restore science and common sense to public policy?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and special guest Lois Perry will tackle this subject, plus other Crazy Climate News of the Week.

The Trump administration has moved to repeal the 2009 “endangerment finding” — the scientific determination that underpins the federal government's authority to regulate climate change. The decision marks one of the most consequential climate policy shifts in years and sets up a major legal and political battle. POLITICO's Jean Chemnick and Alex Guillén join host Nirmal Mulaikal to explain what the endangerment finding does, why it matters, and what happens next for U.S. climate policy.

The move is the latest push by the Trump administration to wipe out climate regulations in the United States.Lisa Friedman, a New York Times reporter who covers climate policy, has spent the past few weeks piecing together the inside story of how a small group of activists turned its goal of rolling back environmental protections into reality.Guest: Lisa Friedman, a reporter covering climate policy and politics at The New York Times.Background reading: President Trump's allies are near a “total victory” in wiping out a central U.S. climate regulation.Four Trump allies have been a driving force behind the administration's efforts to rollback the rule.Photo: Evelyn Hockstein/ReutersFor more information on today's episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily.

China may still be the world's largest emitter of carbon dioxide, but CO2 levels have been falling due to a push for clean energy. New data suggests 2025 was the first full year to show a decline.

The story begins in Brazil at COP30, the United Nations climate summit, where global leaders gather to address climate change. From there, it steps back to ask a deeper question: what kind of problem is climate change, really? Moving from climate science to lived experience, the episode explores why facts and data—while essential—are not enough to motivate belief or action. As stories from vulnerable communities come into focus, climate change emerges not just as a scientific challenge, but as a human one, leaving us unsettled and without easy resolution. About the Series: This two-part series follows a group of Christians from around the world as they gather in Brazil for COP30, the United Nations climate summit. Rather than focusing on policy outcomes or political winners and losers, the series explores what kind of problem climate change really is—and what kind of response it demands. Through science, lived experience, and faith practices, the series asks how Christians might move beyond information and outrage toward resilience, responsibility, and faithful action in a warming world.
