This week on Under the Radar with Callie Crossley:

Earth Day is right around the corner. But we’re far from putting Mother Earth first, according to the latest U.N. climate change report. Plus, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has okayed 20 all-electric public school buses. Will a proposed new state Senate bill guarantee a whole fleet of electric MBTA buses? And environmentalists are getting pumped up over heat pumps! They're touted as a cleaner and more efficient way to heat and cool your home, and a way of reducing reliance on Russian gas or propane.

It's our environmental roundtable!

Guests:

Beth Daley, Editor and General Manager of The Conversation US

Cabell Eames, Political Director of Better Future Project, a Massachusetts-based grassroots climate-action organization

Dr. Aaron Bernstein, Interim Director of The Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, pediatrician at Boston Children’s Hospital and an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School
