Kevin Anderson’s lecture on Feb. 4 at the London School of Economics.  No words are wasted in this 55-minute (plus a Q and A) speech podcast.  No one I know of has the same unbounded sense of tough-minded realism about meeting the requirements to effectively mitigate dangerous climate change.  You can see how much change of attitude is still needed on the part of nearly all policy-makers and even many leading science activists.
