Abstract

Elizabeth Kolbert, author of "The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History," discusses climate change in an interview with Bulletin executive editor Dan Drollette Jr. They explore the reliance on techno-solutions and the challenges of transitioning away from fossil fuels. Kolbert also discusses her latest book, "H is For Hope: Climate Change From A to Z," which presents climate change topics in an easily digestible format with illustrations. She emphasizes the importance of journalists reporting the truth about climate change, regardless of whether it is positive or negative, and expresses concern about the potential consequences of another Trump administration on climate action.
