president biden announces an ambitious plan in the fight against climate change. signs are unmistakable. the science is undeniable. the cost of inaction keeps mounting. he intends to cut carbon emissions by 2030 by half. is it just, well, blowing smoke? if the developing world doesn t follow suit. no nation can solve this crisis on our own. i will talk to the head of conservation international. plus, too few hospital beds. not enough bottled oxygen. a shortage of covid medicine and vaccines. overcrowding at cemeteries and long lines at crematoriums. this is the covid crisis devastating india right now. we will get a report from the ground on why it s gotten so bad. first, here is my take. this pandemic brought out the crazy in all of us. we have been selective about the science we take seriously and the stuff we disregard. we have been more moved by vivid anecdotes than by scholarly studies. i start to worry when even the experts seem irrational. consider the deci
