Summary
In this episode of The MEER Podcast, we speak with physician, environmental filmmaker, and activist Dr. Sofia Pineda Ochoa, director of Endgame 2050 and Greenwashed. Together, we explore the links between human and planetary health, the psychology of climate denial, the rise of greenwashing, and the role of storytelling in confronting ecological collapse. Sofia reflects on her transition from medicine to filmmaking, the making of her documentaries, and why honest conversations about the climate crisis are more important than ever. Despite the difficult realities discussed, the episode also highlights resilience, local action, and the quieter forms of hope emerging around the world.
