Summary
Hannah Ritchie is a data scientist, author, and deputy editor of Our World in Data — and she's convinced the world is making more progress than the headlines show. Hannah and Hank talk about why incremental change is good but not sexy, a few of the 50 climate questions she tackles in her new book Clearing the Air, and why cement, of all things, has her the most excited.
