Meet Cesar Aguirre, a community organizer who's fought Big Oil and won. Communities living near oil production risk breathing toxic air and drinking contaminated water. His team protected homes, schools, and hospitals from drilling by defeating a dangerous industry referendum in California.

Episode Make America Green Again - Benji Backer Cover

Make America Green Again - Benji Backer

Most consider climate policy as a liberal viewpoint, but one conservative is leading the charge to take partisanship out of environmental politics. Meet Benji Backer, founder of Nature is Nonpartisan. In 2025, Benji landed a huge victory when President Trump issued an executive order called “Make America Beautiful Again”, establishing a council to conserve public lands, protect wildlife, and expand access to clean drinking water. This convo explores the partisan tensions pervading the climate movement - and how to overcome them. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe or follow! It really helps us spread the word.

Episode The New Green Gospel - William Morris Cover

The New Green Gospel - William Morris

If we want to get any progress done on climate change, we have to persuade the people who deny it. Traditionally, one of the largest groups of deniers are Evangelical Protestants. Charles meets with William Morris at GreenFaith, an international collective that unites local religious groups of all faiths to protect the environment. They’ve led divestment campaigns, won oil setbacks, and they’re just getting started. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe or follow! It really helps us spread the word.
