Generation Green New Deal
A new generation has pushed the climate crisis to the center of American politics. Generation Green New Deal tells the story of this youth movement: who they are, what they’ve accomplished so far, and where they go from here. Hosted by filmmaker Sam Eilertsen.
In this episode we examine the life (and death?) of President Biden’s centerpiece legislation: the “Build Back Better” plan. We’ve been getting the inside scoop from Lauren Maunus, Sunrise Movement’s Advocacy Director over the last six months as she’s lobbied congress to help push for what would be the biggest climate investment ever made by the US government.
