I watch this AGU lecture at least once a year.
Julia Ioffe is an awesome journalist. I encourage you to watch this interview in one go…with some strong coffee.

A recent report concludes that “our fossilized system of oligarchical ownership needs more than fine-tuning if we are to avoid the ecological time bomb of climate change” and highlights the key role played by the sector’s financial enablers – “A mapping of the elite network of interlocking directorates around the largest Canada-based fossil-fuel firms, circa 2015, revealed a well-integrated, east-west configuration of financial institutions (based mainly in Toronto) and fossil-fuel corporations (based mainly in Calgary).”
As the latest COP is now underway, Prof. Hansen has released an important summary titled Climate Change in a Nutshell: The Gathering Storm I encourage you to read it.
