In this episode, host Richard Delevan dives into the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton and why it’s time for North Carolina to sue Big Oil for damages. Joined by Richard Wiles from the Center for Climate Integrity, we explore how oil majors fueled the climate crisis and intensified storms like Helene. We argue that to win in court—and in public opinion—North Carolina must shift the narrative, hold Big Oil accountable, and move beyond cautious rhetoric around 1.5°C - which we discuss with Joe Lo from Climate Home News. The stakes couldn’t be higher: the future of climate action depends on it. 00:00 Helene, Milton, and the End 01:27 Intro 08:39 Interview with Richard Wiles, Center for Climate Integrity 34:42 World Weather Attribution Presser 39:00 W hy is 1.5 hard to talk about? 01:00:44 EarthSet event with Semafor's Prashant Rao, CCC's Sophie Vipond, Oxford Net Zero's Matilda Becker & Carbon Tracker's Mark Campanale 01:05:54 Outro Links to some guests and things discussed in this episode: Center for Climate Integrity Joe Lo at Climate Home News | BlueSky | Twitter World Weather Attribution project Earth Set Prashant Rao, Semafor Carbon Tracker Oxford Net Zero Climate Change Committee Hosted on Acast.
