In this very special episode, Current Affairs editor-in-chief Nathan J. Robinson and managing editor Lyta Gold chat with legendary author Naomi Klein about her latest book, On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal. Together, they discuss some of the positive trends in environmental activism, and respond to Jonathan Franzen's execrable recent op-ed in the New Yorker on his passive acceptance of climate change. Afterwards, Nathan and Lyta talk a lot about their climate feelings. 

On Fire: The Burning Case for a Green New Deal is available from September 17th. For more information see:  https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/On-Fire/Naomi-Klein/9781982129910
