Last week I did an interview with the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy at the University of Pennsylvania on partisan polarization over environmental issues and climate change in particular that covered how it has evolved over the past half century. It provided a chance to not only trace the growth of polarization over the decades but to tie it to waves of anti-environmentalism and climate change denial. Some of you may find it of interest, especially for the historical perspective on our current situation.
It wasn't my best effort, as I had just endured a few hours of intense noise from a chainsaw, stump-grinder and leaf blower as my next-door neighbor had a couple trees removed, which drove home the fact that noise is indeed a stressor! But I managed to hit the key points I wanted to make. The podcast is available here, and (I'm told) on ITunes. https://kleinmanenergy.upenn.edu/energy-policy-now/how-democratic-republican-climate-rift-came-be Riley E.
