Episode 1

Connecting Faith and Science to Solve the Climate Crisis with Katharine Hayhoe

Chief Scientist at the Nature Conservancy, climate researcher, “Science Mom,” and evangelical Christian, Katharine Hayhoe is not out to save the planet, she’s out to save us from the devastating impacts of climate change. As a scientist, Katharine knows that the earth will adapt to global warming, but the conditions, if left unchecked, will ultimately lead to our extinction. As a Christian, she views climate change as a failure to love, since its effects are already impacting those who have contributed the least to its cause. With Biblical mandates to care for God’s creation and love our neighbor as ourselves, Katharine is helping people of all backgrounds and faiths better understand, address, and combat climate change with compassion and hope. Join us for a joyful conversation on the power of science and faith joining forces to solve the climate crisis.
