As Greta Thunberg sounds the alarm to the world’s youth, Dr. Twyla Dell has been an environmental educator and activist for 30 years. She has researched fuel transitions from the 1820s to the present day and shares their stories, discussing what happens when people change fuels and how we’ll manage the next transition.

Twyla Dell has a Ph.D. in Environmental Studies from Antioch University Graduate School. Worked in public information for the EPA. Lectured across the United States and Canada for business seminars. Created the Environmental Leadership Program for business and community leaders, teachers, and students. Taught high school English and Spanish. The next book to be published this year is about the creation of the EPA.

There has never been a more dire time to get this message to the public. We have given the responsibility of stopping climate change to governments and corporations when it’s ours to do: and can be done! Simple math and a simple plan.

Podcasts are fun to do. There is no better way to educate and offer hope!
