Environment and Climate News Podcast | Climate Protests Sweep Across the Globe

Show Notes

There's been a sharp uptick in protests in the name of a climate change induced catastrophe across the globe. Fridays for Future, the group inspired by Greta Thunberg, recently held protests in 450 locations. Stories are flooding the news of protestors gluing themselves to private property and then expecting the businesses to cooperate with their demands. Why the sharp uptick in protests? Are these grassroots protests or is this a political scheme?

Andy Singer, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and JunkScience.com's Steve Milloy discuss the global situation on today's episode of Environment & Climate News.
