Atmospheric scientist Tim Garrett joins me to discuss, among other things, collapse. Contained within this hour-long interview, we cover the thermodynamics of civilizational growth and inevitable decline, the irrationality of dominant economic theory, Jevons Paradox, and his fascinating and wondrous study of clouds and snowflakes.

Tim Garrett is Professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Utah, and his research mostly focuses on the complex interplay between aerosols, clouds, precipitation, radiation and climate.
