Overshoot affects everything - where do we start?In this bonus episode, a panel of leading climate thinkers and doers discuss the implications of 1.5C overshoot for law, geopolitics, activism, and more. Host Laurie Laybourn is joined by Arlo Brady (Freuds), Olivia Lazard (Berggruen Institute), Harj Narulla (Doughty Street Chambers), and Clover Hogan (Force of Nature). The conversation was recorded in front of a live audience at the Freuds Group HQ in London. It has been edited for conciseness.***OVERSHOOT is a new four-part audio documentary hosted by climate researcher and policy advisor Laurie Laybourn.

Episode 4: Derailment
How can we be resilient to what comes next?One of Spain’s worst disasters was driven by climate change. But it ended up boosting climate deniers. This episode explores how to avoid this, what it really means to prepare for a world above 1.5°C, and why governments are clinging to fantasy preparation plans. And we hear the stories of how we can stay focused on navigating the growing climate storm. ***OVERSHOOT is a new four-part audio documentary hosted by climate researcher and policy advisor Laurie Laybourn.

Episode 3: The Minsky Moment
What do the people in charge think is going to happen?Sue Owen was enjoying her retirement until she asked her pension fund what it thought catastrophic climate change would do to the economy. Not very much, according to them. This episode follows the campaigners and experts uncovering how pension funds, governments, and the other people in charge are using misleading economics that wildly underestimates the dangers of overshooting 1.5°C - and what to do about it. ***OVERSHOOT is a new four-part audio documentary hosted by climate researcher and policy advisor Laurie Laybourn.

Episode 2: Carbon Suckers
Who’s going to clean up the mess?Dangerous amounts of carbon have been dumped in the atmosphere - so someone has to clean up the mess. Enter the dream - or delusion - of sucking carbon out of the sky. We trace how a backup plan for tackling climate change became plan A, why fossil fuel companies love it, and the staggering scale of the carbon sucking that must now be done - and whether it can even work.***OVERSHOOT is a new four-part audio documentary hosted by climate researcher and policy advisor Laurie Laybourn.

Episode 1: Uncharted Territory
If the world didn’t win, then has it lost? The world is overshooting 1.5°C, a level of global heating long seen as the marker of climate safety. But does that mean we’re doomed? In this opening episode, we hear the extraordinary story of how the 1.5°C goal was set, and how it shapes the ways we think about climate change. We learn why some people are now turning to fatalism and what it might really mean to navigate a truly global climate crisis.***OVERSHOOT is a new four-part audio documentary hosted by climate researcher and policy advisor Laurie Laybourn.

In 2015, the world agreed to limit global heating to 1.5°C. Ten years later, temperatures are spiralling beyond this and climate chaos is wreaking havoc across the globe.
How did we end up here? And how do we navigate what comes next?
In this major four-part series, host Laurie Laybourn explores how the world ended up here and uncovers the huge misconceptions and the high-tech fantasies that hold us back. And we meet people with the ideas to navigate what comes next, from protesting pensioners to climate negotiators, Pacific islanders to pre-eminent scientists.
