Environmental Thanks

Guest: Peter Kareiva, PhD, Director of the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA  Doom and gloom is the standard approach these days when it comes to talking about climate change. We’ve certainly heard a fair amount of it from experts on this show. But with Thanksgiving upon us, Peter Kareiva of UCLA’s Institute of the Environment and Sustainability is proposing a different angle. He says negativity isn’t that effective in getting people to act anyway, so he’s giving thanks for somethings are going right with regard to the environment.
