Reframing climate change as a symptom of evolutionary success

Hosted by

Scientists say climate change is an urgent problem that needs drastic action, but not everyone buys it. And so, astrophysics professor Adam Frank suggests that we should reframe the debate in a more positive light.  Rather than place blame, he believes we should talk about climate change as a story of humanity’s evolutionary success.
