The Nature of the Future: Elizabeth Kolbert and Kate Aronoff in conversation
Tuesday, February 23, 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. (PST)

The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Sixth Extinction returns to humanity’s transformative impact on the environment, now asking: After doing so much damage, can we change nature, this time to save it? In Under a White Sky, Elizabeth Kolbert takes a hard look at the new world we are creating. Along the way, she meets biologists who are trying to preserve the world’s rarest fish, which lives in a single tiny pool in the middle of the Mojave Desert; engineers who are turning carbon emissions to stone in Iceland; Australian researchers who are trying to develop a “super coral” that can survive in a hotter globe; and physicists who are contemplating shooting tiny diamonds into the stratosphere to cool the earth. Kate Aronoff, a TNR staff writer and author of the forthcoming Overheated: How Capitalism Broke the Planet and How We Fight Back, joins her for a conversation.

This program is presented in partnership with The New Republic.
