Description

Welcome back to Climate Change Therapy, the podcast that once used to be about climate change, got sidetracked in 2020, but is trending back towards climate change for 2021, thanks to the divine intervention of vaccines for Christmas. On today’s (12/22/20) episode, host Hank Felsman reconvenes the March 2020 COVID-19 emergency podcast roundtable - the urban planners Lars Mikelson, Robert Ball, "Pseudonym" Fix, and Jean Laundice - to recap the year that is so indescribable it has already become its own adjective, and to discuss climate change, the coronavirus, and unrelated topics, including:
