FM #1159 - Making Sense Of Climate #40 - 03/12/24
This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Ted McIntyre, Franklin resident and climate activist. We met to record in the Franklin TV & Public Radio studio on Tuesday, March 12, 2024.
We continued making sense of climate on an almost extemporaneous discussion similar to what we recently had. The topic list:
- State of the Union, Inflation Reduction Act
- Conservation land, rewilding to restore carbon balance
- Gulf Stream, and implications of climate change
- Boston Globe article on smart electrical panels
- Stranded asset, reuse with geothermal possible
- Total eclipse, April 8
This discussion continues our journey understanding the MA roadmap toward net zero and while it helps me “make sense of climate”, we hope it helps with your understanding as well.
If you have climate questions or Franklin specific climate questions, send them in and we’ll try to answer them in a future session.
The conversation runs about 47 minutes. Let’s listen to my conversation with Ted.
