Blame Canada: Why is the government still subsidizing fossil fuels?
The Climate Breakdown host Hazel Thayer explores how boring and bad subsidies are destroying the planet, with expertise provided by Canadian-American political scientist Leah Stokes.
Welcome to The Climate Breakdown where we break down the breakdown of the climate without giving you a mental breakdown.
In this five-part series, host Hazel Thayer unpacks some of the most important aspects of the human-caused climate emergency in the conversational, common sense tone that she’s renowned for on TikTok and other social media platforms.
Produced and directed by Aaron Hagey MacKay from The Climate Ad Project and Beaverton, The Climate Breakdown uses a fresh visual approach that often employs humour to underline the overwhelming consensus that experts and scientists have agreed on when it comes to climate change causes and solutions.
