In this episode: how a crusade shut down a coal-fired Chicago power plant for good. What the closing of that plant meant for children’s health and the environment. And what it didn’t mean.

This is the eighth and final episode in our “Climate Change Solutions” series, where we look at research-based ideas to help cool a rapidly heating planet.

Guests:

  • Kimberly Wasserman is Exeutive Director of the Little Village Environmental Justice Organization, and past winner of the Goldman Environmental Prize.
  • Sarah Komisarow is Assistant Professor of Economics and Public Policy at Duke University.
  • Emily Pakhtigian is a former PhD student in public policy at Duke, now Assistant Professor at the School of Public Policy at Penn State University.
  • Youki Terada is Editor at Edutopia from the George Lucas Educational Foundation.

Season 8 of Ways & Means is made possible thanks to support from the Office of the Provost at Duke University. Find out more about the Duke Climate Commitment.
