Show Description:

THIS SHOW IS A MUST-HEAR FOR ANYBODY CONCERNED WITH THE FATE OF OUR PLANET & SOCIETY…

Join HealthyPlanet’s Bob DiBenedetto for a discussion with Dhar Jamail, award-winning journalist and author, most recently, of The End of Ice: Bearing Witness and Finding Meaning in the Path of Climate Disruption.

Dhar Jamail traveled the globe observing areas that have been deeply impacted by climate change, from Alaska to the Amazon rainforest to Australia, and spoke to researchers on the front lines of climate research. The consistent message he received is clear and disturbing–climate changes impacts are upon us, and the damage that has been done is worse than most can imagine…and irreversible.

Join us for an important discussion that can lead to many benefits for individuals and the world!
