Episode 17: The Political Landscape: Part 8 – Hurricanes and the Politics of Ignoring Climate Change

This episode of "No Hate Radio," hosted by Don Windle, focuses on the intersection of climate change and the 2024 election. Windle discusses the aftermath of a massive hurricane that hit the southeastern U.S. and ties it to broader climate issues, emphasizing how climate change has become a politically divisive topic. He critiques the lack of political will to address what he calls an existential threat and contrasts the two political approaches to climate change: one side acknowledges it and calls for urgent action, while the other side downplays or ignores it. The episode encourages listeners to think critically about climate change and take action in the upcoming election.

​This episode was originally supposed to release on October 19, but we have been hard at work recovering from a second hurricane, Milton, that caused a lot of damage to St. Petersburg, Florida, where this podcast is produced.
