Jakarta Is Sinking, the Sea Is Rising - Why Were the Warnings Ignored? Scientists warned of the consequences of industrialization as early as the 19th century. Yet political and economic interests repeatedly delayed effective climate action. Through compelling historical testimony, this account traces decades of missed warnings and asks when the consequences of inaction will finally become impossible to ignore.

The origins of climate science and the emergence of increasingly clear warnings about human-caused warming and how economic and geopolitical priorities began to impede action in the 1970s.
022. Economists vs. Climatologists
As the reality of global warming becomes increasingly clear, economic theories and political choices continue to delay meaningful action. The episode examines the growing conflict between climate science and economic priorities, from the emergence of scientific consensus to James Hansen’s landmark testimony in 1988.
033. The Age of Lobbyists and Ideologues
With climate change internationally recognized, fossil-fuel interests organize campaigns of doubt and resistance. The episode examines how lobbying and ideology prolonged inaction and helped shift the world from prevention toward adaptation, deepening existing inequalities.
