Topic: Harriet Tregoning

The "climate change economy" is identified as a new driver for urban planning and government spending, focusing on "resiliency" and "adaptation." Officials like Harriet Tregoning from HUD advocate for "smarter" infrastructure, including green roofs and walls that supposedly grow food and cool buildings. The hosts argue these initiatives are primarily designed to facilitate the flow of taxpayer money to consultants and corporate interests under the guise of environmental protection.
