This episode of Big Blend Radio features journalist and best-selling author David Lipsky who discusses his latest book, “The Parrot and The Igloo: Climate and the Science of Denial.” 

Now published in paperback, he turns his prodigious talent to the twin stories of our lifetime: climate change and truth. Lipsky explores how “anti-science” became virulent in American life—through the history of climate denial and its consequences. Featuring an indelible cast of heroes and villains, mavericks and swindlers, “The Parrot and the Igloo” delivers a real-life tragicomedy―one that captures the extraordinary dance of science, Money, and the American character.
