In this episode, Chris, David, and Mark consider the state of the world and the sustainability agenda at the beginning of 2026. They discuss what recent global polling shows about societal polarization, the risks of hyper-global and local inequalities, and the risks related to loss of trust in democratic institutions. Recorded just after the 2026 World Economic Forum in Davos, the conversation foreshadows many of the major themes the podcast will touch on this year.
