The Definitive Decade w/ Christiana Figueres

Play Now:

The Global South is paying the price of the climate crisis caused by the Global North. This pattern of environmental injustice has repeated itself for decades. As we usher in a new decade, it must be the Global South and frontline communities that lead on solutions for the climate crisis. To kick off Climate Week NYC 2021, The Coolest Show Host Rev Yearwood sits down with Christiana Figueres, a globally recognized leader on climate action, to discuss how we can take actions to go from positions of disenfranchisement to positions of power.

Christiana Figueres is the founding partner of Global Optimism and former Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. She also steered the global diplomatic effort that culminated in the 2015 Paris Agreement.
