217: Stephen Lezak Challenges Bill Gates’s Climate Argument
In this episode, Matt and climate researcher Stephen Lezak discuss the dangers of rapid Arctic warming, the flaws in Bill Gates’s recent essay downplaying climate existential risk, and the injustice baked into who suffers most from climate impacts. Lezak explains why extreme “end-of-civilization” framing can backfire, emphasizing instead the unequal burdens on poor and Indigenous communities. They also explore Arctic sea-ice collapse, long-term climate uncertainty, and needed reforms in California’s carbon offset system.
