Who or what is responsible for the 26% of Americans who deny human-caused climate change and the 14% who deny climate change is happening at all?        

Listen as our host Tim Jordan asks one of the world’s top experts in climate change and its impact on the Amazon region these questions and more. Who is terrified? Who is optimistic?  Listen and find out.
