Episode Synopsis

Cutting emissions now and in the near future could still save humanity from climate catastrophe, but it won’t save us from the climate changes we’re already experiencing, according to a new United Nations report. Plus, author Amanda Ripley talks about how certain issues, such as climate change, become politicized and can lead to discussion surrounding those issues becoming toxic. And, owners of sport fishing boats say an effort to improve the state’s air quality could cost them their businesses. Also, Brian Burrows, who grew up in Fallbrook, talks about winning the bronze medal in trap shooting. Finally, an outdoor film series will feature the best screwball comedy sparring matches.
