🎙️ Are we facing a climate crisis — or the consequences of the systems we built?

In this eye-opening episode of Tangelic Talks, co-hosts Victoria Cornelio and Andres Tamez sit down with Rachel Donald — investigative journalist and creator of Planet Critical — to unpack the deeper forces shaping today’s climate reality.

Instead of focusing only on emissions and technology, Rachel invites us to zoom out.

Because behind climate headlines lie bigger questions about power, economics, geopolitics, and the stories we tell ourselves about progress.

This conversation challenges the idea that climate change is just an environmental issue — and reframes it as a systemic one.
