Episode Details

Climate skepticism in Germany isn’t just about money—it’s rooted in political loyalty, distrust of government, and a sense that democracy isn’t serving them. People filter facts through their beliefs, a psychological trait called “motivated reception,” making climate action harder to rally support for. Meanwhile, in India, climate change is a daily survival battle—not a debate. Germany’s deadly heatwaves this summer are a stark wake-up call: we must confront skepticism not just with restrictions, but by highlighting the opportunities in climate action. Ultimately, personal experience with extreme weather may be the catalyst that shifts minds—and pushes for real change.
