Sustainability Now! | Alan Miller | Cut Super Climate Pollutants Now | June 20, 2022

On this week’s show, we talk with climate expert Alan Miller about his recent, critically important book, co-authored with Durwood Zaelke, ”Cut Super Climate Pollutants Now! The Ozone Treaty's Urgent Lessons for Speeding Up Climate Action.” Listen in to the revolutionary story of a 10-year sprint to reduce 'super climate pollutants', cut global warming in half, and avert catastrophe. We have a decade or less to radically slow global warming before we risk hitting irreversible tipping points that will lock in catastrophic climate change. The good news is that we know how to slow global warming enough to avert disaster. Miller explains how a 10-year sprint to cut short-lived “super climate pollutants” -- primarily HFC refrigerants, black carbon (soot), and methane -- can cut the rate of global warming in half, so we can stay in the race to net zero climate emissions by 2050.
