Terrible Equinor Oil Spill Modelling Comes as Brazil Suffers Severe Climate Impacts

Conor talks with Carlos about the totally inadequate approach to oil spill modelling and response by Equinor in both Brazil and Canada ( with Bay du Nord ). They also discuss how Brazil is facing climate impacts that will only be made worse by projects like Equinor's Bacalhau oil project and why countries like Canada and Norway need to do more to act on climate change, working with others globally. Find out more about the Equinor Out campaign in Brazil here.

In the Q&A we discuss why our current dependence on oil and gas does NOT mean we need to stay dependent on oil and gas. For facts on why climate change is real and is caused by the burning of oil and gas check out these resources:
