The climate crisis is here and it is scary as hell. So scary that it is tempting to close your eyes (and maybe even scroll past this episode). But please don't do that. Instead, let the Ladies Who Crunch walk you through where those feelings of climate despair, grief and nihilism come from, strategies for facing them (surprisingly similar to strategies for facing down your personal finance fears) and concrete actions you can take to use your personal economic power to fight climate change.

Questions we ask in this episode include: What is climate nihilism and how does it keep us from taking action? Why does climate change make us feel hopeless? How is this similar to how we feel about our personal finances? What are some strategies for combating nihilism or hopelessness? How much time do we have to act and what kind of impacts are we likely to feel if we don't act now? Who are the major emitters of greenhouse gases? Do your personal consumer choices actually make a difference? What are some political and economic actions you can take to address climate change? How can you leverage your purchasing power to hit carbon emission reduction goals?
