Simmer Down takes a cool-headed look at ​a hot topic ​-- climate change. ​H​ost Kathleen Biggins, ​founder and president of C-Change Conversations, sits down with a range of experts to talk about how climate change is impacting the things we all love and need — the things we talk about around our kitchen tables.

Staying true to C-Change’s nonpartisan, science-based approach, Kathleen and guests address the really important questions we all have when it comes to climate change: How can we protect our families and assets? How can we stay healthy? And how can we protect the things we love?

In Season One, we explore the impacts of climate change on weather, health, insurance, sports, investing, and food. Whether you’re curious, concerned, or already care about our changing climate, our non-confrontational conversations are a great way to learn more about how it is likely affecting your daily life – and why we have hope for the future.

C-Change Conversations’ Kathleen Biggins sits down with New York Times award-winning Reporter David Gelles for an in-depth discussion about climate, capitalism, and culture, areas of expertise that he delves into in his forthcoming book, “Dirtbag Billionaire: How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made a Fortune, and Gave It All Away.”

Kathleen joins Mark Hayes of Glenmede for a wide-ranging conversation about how climate change is transforming the finance sector. They explore the risks and opportunities of the global climate transition, the rise of sustainable investment strategies, and the regulatory and political shifts shaping today’s landscape. The discussion also dives into how corporate leadership in the C-suite is responding to climate challenges, the growing trend of “greenhushing,” and the federal policy changes influencing the pace of climate action.
