PODCAST

The $38 Trillion Dollar Question

If we don’t take action, researchers estimate that damages from climate change could cost 38 trillion dollars a year. Somebody will pay one way or another; how do we make sure the countries most responsible invest in projects that can still help now? Former climate envoy and U.S. secretary of state John Kerry joins Anne Finucane of TPG Rise Climate Fund and Vijay Vaitheeswaran, the global energy and climate innovation editor of The Economist, for a strategic conversation on how to fund climate mitigation projects. MSNBC business correspondent Stephanie Ruhle moderates the conversation.

SESSION

What's Missing in the Lives of America's Young People?

“I ask young people all the time when I travel, how do you define success? What is society telling you what success is? And they mention three things: fame, fortune and power,” says U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy. “Here's a different triad that leads to fulfillment, and that is belonging, purpose and service.” It’s no secret that we’re facing a mental health crisis among younger generations. How can society help youth develop into confident, purposeful and resilient adults? Murthy speaks with Kaya Henderson, former chancellor of D.C. public schools and executive director of the Aspen Institute’s Center for Rising Generations. Aspen Institute President and CEO Dan Porterfield moderates as they discuss navigating social media, the purpose of education, and rebuilding social connection.
