The Climate Crisis and the Global Green New Deal

Robert Pollin (economist, and consultant/designer of many Green New Deal projects for countries/organizations) and Noam Chomsky in conversation, outlining a blueprint for a Global Green New Deal. They dig into the politics, policies and the financial side of things, in additional to forecasting the effects of climate change on our planet and societies.

It's good to see actual numbers, printed in black and white. And to realize that what they're proposing is only a fraction of the amount of public money that was spent to bail out the banks after the 2008 crash. I also quite liked the structure. Each of them could have written this book in essay form, but the ping pong interview dynamic, and the conversational tone made it more approachable.

They talk of a ‘global' GND, but obviously there's still a huge focus on the US.
Of the many climate-crisis books out there, this is a more proactive, down-to-business one.
