Help! My boss is a climate change denier! What should I do?
This week’s episode of the Net Zero Business Podcast is a bit different – it’s a Q&A featuring this superb question from Alice Doyle: how do you deal with climate change denial in the upper echelons of your organisation?
Here’s what I cover in my response:
- How prevalent is climate change denial really?
- Why you should never debate climate science with a climate change denier
- How to use Green Jujitsu to reframe your arguments so the other person understands them
- Getting allies on board to help
- Why intransigent climate change denial should be a red flag for your career prospects in an organisation
I intend to start weaving further Q&A episodes in alongside the usual interview episodes (which return next week), but I need your questions and dilemmas! They can be about any Net Zero/Climate/Sustainability-related subject, but within an organisational context. You can choose anonymity if you prefer. Click here to send me your questions!
And don’t forget, if you like what I do, share, subscribe and give the pod a 5-star review on your favoured podcast platform (on ApplePodcasts, go to the Net Zero Business Podcastr show page and scroll down). It all helps with those mysterious algorithms of power…
