In an all-Eagle kickoff to Season 2, we talk with two Boston College professors who traveled to Brazil to attend UN COP30. Hanqin Tian, Professor of Global Sustainability at Schiller Institute, and Director of the Center for Earth System Science & Global Sustainability (who attended the first week of the conference) and Tara Pisani Gareau, Director of Environmental Studies Program, and Professor of the Practice in Earth & Environmental Science at Boston College (who attended the second week of the conference), join us in studio to talk about what they saw, heard, and learned, and what events like COP30 mean in the ongoing response to the climate crisis.
