In this 4th episode of the 6th season of Planet A, Dan Jørgensen talks to Dr. Angela Carter, who is a leading expert on phasing out fossil fuels.

They discuss the risks of fossil fuel dependency, especially for the least developed countries, the need to align fossil fuel production with our climate imperative, and the importance of global commitments to keep fossil fuels in the ground. These international efforts include the Beyond Oil and Gas Alliance (BOGA) and the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.

They also touch on the closely related subject of a people-centered clean energy transition and how to support workers and communities in moving away from the fossil fuel industry and into green energy jobs.

Angela Carter is an associate professor at the Department of Political Science and Balsillie School of International Affairs at the University of Waterloo. Carter is also an energy transitions specialist at the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD).

She is known for her interdisciplinary research on environmental policies and politics surrounding Canadian fossil fuel development and the ecological and political-economic risks of fossil fuel dependence. She recently published the award-winning book FOSSILIZED: Environmental Policy in Canada's Petro-Provinces.

Carter is engaged in public debate on climate politics and has served as a member of the Net-Zero Advisory Council, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador.
