## Summary

The Stateside podcast is inviting listeners to submit questions for an upcoming conversation between host Kai Wright and environmentalist and author Bill McKibben. The discussion will examine what US political leaders might do about the climate crisis in 2027, when Democrats are expected to control both chambers of Congress.

The article says the UN has warned that global heating beyond a level that threatens human health is now unavoidable, while the US remains outside global efforts to limit the crisis’s effects. McKibben’s latest book, *Here Comes the Sun*, argues that scientific advances and market changes offer tools to address climate change, but political action must catch up. Questions are due by 20 November.
