Hosted and reported by award-winning investigative climate journalists and led by Amy Westervelt, each season unravels new evidence of deception, disinformation, and the power structures keeping real climate solutions out of reach. In September 2025, a group of Brazilian ministers trekked all the way to chilly North Dakota to see a presentation on a new type of clean energy project, one that promised to help them deliver Brazilian President Lula’s dream of turning Brazil into “the Saudi Arabia of sustainable aviation fuels.” It was the latest in a string of projects from Midwest Republican kingmaker and corn ethanol magnate Bruce Rastetter, whose investments in Brazil might just transform him into a global carbon czar, even as his Summit pipeline carbon project faces fierce opposition from Iowa to North Dakota. The problem? It all requires loads of land and none of it does a thing about climate change.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T14:21:37.467256+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/drilled-860945"},"episode":{"title":"Drilling Deep: Jessica Green on Why We Need More Confrontation at COP","slug":"drilling-deep-jessica-green-on-why-we-need-more-confrontation-at-cop","published_at":"2025-11-17T11:15:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/drilled-860945/drilling-deep-jessica-green-on-why-we-need-more-confrontation-at-cop","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/drilled-860945","url":"https://omny.fm/shows/drilled/drilling-deep-jessica-green-on-why-we-need-more-confrontation-at-cop","audio_url":"https://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/tracking.swap.fm/track/SxlTEPDY7xDg35RXkASs/pdrl.fm/3e5572/traffic.omny.fm/d/clips/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/9a7ab5ee-ce11-48ff-a544-b3ec00ea9b1e/5e9ec643-613a-47de-9e4d-b3ec00eb863b/audio.mp3?utm_source=Podcast&in_playlist=7f82f371-6316-4ea6-a108-b3ec00ea9b2d","summary":"After four decades of the United Nations climate conference COP, progress on global climate action remains slow. So what isn't working? How is it possible that so much fanfare, so many words, and so much work—much of it genuine and good-faith—has amounted to such little progress? University of Toronto political science professor Jessica F. Green has some ideas. In Existential Politics: Why Global Climate Institutions Are Failing and How to Fix Them, the longtime observer of global climate negotiations and expert on carbon accounting argues that the COP embodies a “win-win” approach to a problem for which someone has to lose. The challenge is to make sure the right people (and planet) do the winning, while the “fossil asset owners,” as Green describes them, do the losing.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.","meta_description":"After four decades of the United Nations climate conference COP, progress on global climate action remains slow.
