Series: DeSmogCAST

This weekโ€™s episode of DeSmogCAST covers the fallout of the U.S. midterm elections and what a GOP-led Congress will mean for climate action and the Keystone XLย pipeline.

Hosted by DeSmogBlog contributor Farron Cousins, our DeSmog cast โ€“ featuring Carol Linnitt, Brendan DeMelle and Steve Horn โ€“ also takes a look at fracking bans in several U.S. states, the hilarious success of the #KMFACE campaign, and the importance of community organizing in the face of growing fossil fuel influence in our lives. We discuss Chevronโ€™s โ€˜Fuel Your Schoolsโ€™ campaign currently taking place in schools around Vancouverโ€™s lowerย mainland.

DeSmogCAST is a weekly newscast featuring DeSmog writers, experts and invited guests who discuss breaking stories and engage in analysis of politics, energy and environment issues in the U.S., Canada and aroundย theย world.
