Episode description
215: With so much public outcry this week around the Willow Project, we're zooming out to ask how these new oil and gas lines are still being funded - who's supplying the proposed $8 billion? We discuss big banks, divestment, and the Biden Administration's shaky commitment to climate goals as the world races to keep warming below 1.5C.
