PODCAST

Building a Zero Carbon American Future
|
Climate change “is what is going to define the economy and the security of the human race going forward,” says John Podesta, senior advisor to President Biden for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation. “That will take a change in the global economy, a revolution in the global economy, on a size and scale that's never occurred in human history.” Podesta is in charge of meeting the Biden administration’s challenge to cut U.S. emissions to zero by 2050. His chief focus right now is implementing the projects funded by the Inflation Reduction Act, the largest investment in clean energy the country
has ever made. On stage at the Aspen Ideas Festival, Podesta talks with Noticias Telemundo reporter Vanessa Hauc about what it will take to reach these climate goals, potential hurdles, and what success looks like.

The Invisible Problem Plaguing Rural America
|
Catherine Coleman Flowers, the founder of the Center for Rural Enterprise and Environmental Justice, has dedicated her life to ensuring human dignity through a right most Americans take for granted: basic sanitation. We caught up with her about wastewater management (what she calls “America's dirty secret”), her experience on the White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council, and how to ensure community solutions are actually community-driven. Coleman Flowers spoke at last year’s Climate event — keep an eye out for more exciting announcements on Aspen Ideas: Climate 2024!
