1336: Climate Crisis Special

Victory Gardens, Existential Threats, and Urban Adaptation

Proponents of radical climate action suggest a return to World War II-style mobilization, including "Victory Gardens" and banning consumer automobile production to repurpose factory capacity. Experts from Simon Fraser University describe a "low carbon resilient future" as a beautiful, quiet world with more parks and shared spaces. They argue that political leaders have failed to address the "existential threat" of climate change.
