Sinopsis

Chris Spangle talks to Fiona Harrigan and Jakob Puckett about libertarian solutions to climate change and energy policy. Enis wrote in and asked: There has been one thing that has been bugging me quite a lot though; how would climate change and pollution get tackled in a libertarian society?
