    Stabilization is Becoming a Thing

    In our first episode, we talk about what we saw at the Global Risk and Stabilization Summit in Reykjavík: a field starting to see itself as a field, a lot of hedging about advocacy, and a conversation about money that’s still far too small for the risks. In this episode: * Why we start with the risk instead of the solution * How Susan ended up in Iceland on three days’ notice * What the summit was trying to do, and who was in the room * Why insurers aren’t modeling tipping-point risks * Chemtrails, secret cabals, and the narrative traps on both the right and the left * Capital formation versus fundraising * What a polar research icebreaker costs, and why we need to think bigger Mentioned: * Paul’s post, Thinking Bigger About Stabilization (The Overshoot Era) * Susan’s post, The climate stabilization era is here. So are we thickening the ice caps yet? (Climate Money) * The Global Risk and Stabilization Summit: globalstabilization.org * Report: Building Permission Space & Narrative Framing for Climate Stabilization * The Heat Will Kill You First, by Jeff Goodell * The Strategic Climate Risk Initiative piece on insurance whistleblowers, Insurance is stuck in the delayed disclosure trap Subscribe in your podcast player of choice.
