Powerful voices are rewriting climate reality—and getting away with it.

At a conference in London, politicians, influencers and billionaires call Net Zero "a sinister goal," renewables "impossible," and climate action a "scam".

They weren’t whispering in backrooms, they were building alliances across the West and beyond to kill global climate commitments and reshape public opinion.

The Takeover pulls back the curtain on a rising movement that's weaponizing language, spreading misinformation, and shifting the boundaries of mainstream debate. Hear what they’re saying—and why it matters more than ever.

Jordan Peterson Power Broker

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

jeudi 10 avril 2025 • Durée 28:33

Jordan Peterson is a co-founder of The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship – ARC. Episode two of The Takeover examines his career from a psychology professor at the University of Toronto to wildly successful author and guru for dissatisfied young men and now leader of a global movement to create a right-wing world. This movement is called ARC - the Alliance of Responsible Citizenship and its conference in London, U.K. in February 2025 attracted right wing power brokers from around the world.

Many people first heard of Peterson when he got into a fight with the University of Toronto and Canada’s Human Rights Commission over a change to the Human Rights Act. It was amended to include sexual orientation as a prohibited grounds of discrimination extending LGBTQ+ individuals.

A couple of years later he published a book that vaulted him to fame, particularly among young men who “hadn’t grown up”, according to Peterson. The book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos is essentially a self-help book for living a life.

How did he get from there to London, hosting a conference of people who want to upend western democracies?

Shock and Awe

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

mardi 8 avril 2025 • Durée 46:29

Canada’s National Observer teamed up with DeSmog, an online investigative that describes itself as an antidote to science denial and misinformation, on The Takeover project.

We went to the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference in London, a right-wing networking event organized by former U of T professor Jordan Peterson. We observed how speakers spread anti-net-zero strategies across a growing conservative network that includes the U.S., the U.K., Europe, Australia and Canada.

ARC’s goal is to reveal ‘the environmental climate scam’ and end the ‘appalling policy’ of net-zero worldwide. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told the conference in a video appearance. ‘net zero is a sinister goal'.

Supporters and architects of Project 2025, the roadmap for the Trump administration, which covers almost every aspect of American life and U.S. foreign policy, were at ARC to provide information and encouragement. Jordan Peterson declared that ARC was for ‘conservatives to really push the envelope.”

The move against net-zero and climate commitments is being accelerated by the Trump administration with help from rich power brokers, many of whom work in the fossil fuel industry. And ARC was a place to develop political party platforms, deepen transatlantic alliances and shift to the right, the boundaries of acceptable public debate on net zero.

Back in Canada

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

jeudi 24 avril 2025 • Durée 30:59

We take our exploration of right-wing politics to Ottawa, where the Canada Strong and Free Network conference brings together key players in the Conservative movement. Our goal: to compare this event with the ARC conference in London, U.K., and see how each reflects the state of right-wing thought today. With a federal election underway, I wasn’t sure how many major Conservative figures would show up—but as it turns out, the campaign wasn’t a distraction. It was a central theme, woven through speeches, panels, and hallway conversations alike.

Drill Baby Drill

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 17 avril 2025 • Durée 26:05

Donald Trump made it clear during the presidential campaign that his administration planned a Drill, Baby Drill approach to energy. He said he would reduce regulations and cancel policies to fight climate change put in place by the Biden administration.

It was only a week after he was elected that President Trump announced he wanted fracking executive Chris Wright as his Energy Secretary. The long-time climate denier who dismisses renewable energy as expensive and unreliable seemed to be everyone’s favourite, especially the fossil fuel industry. And it was smooth sailing for Wright through his confirmation hearing.

Episode four of The Takeover looks at the man who could make or break the world’s climate change goals.

Get Rid of it All

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mardi 15 avril 2025 • Durée 28:57

On Day two of the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference in London, U.K. in February of 2025, a speaker broke the rules and criticized President Trump and Ellon Musk. The conference hosted by Canadian Jordan Peterson and a British Baroness was a gathering of right-wing power brokers brainstorming about how to take control of western democracies and get rid of what they called 'woke' and 'Marxist' governments. All the speakers seemed to be on the same page but someone had invited a speaker from the enemy camp - the media. His speech was the first alternative point-of-view at the conference.

The Treaty

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 8 juillet 2025 • Durée 38:09

The signing of the Paris Agreement in 2015 was a breakthrough in the fight against the climate crisis. Almost every country in the world signed on to the treaty and agreed to keep or reduce emissions to under 2 degrees Celsius, or better yet, 1.5 degrees Celsius.

When environmental activist Tzeporah Berman read the agreement – a bit nerdy but someone had to do it – she found no mention of oil, gas and coal. Odd, because oil, gas and oil are responsible for more than 86 per cent of carbon emissions. Berman decided the Paris Agreement needed help, so she set out to create the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. Not a heavy lift at all.

Has Trump Killed Net-Zero?

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

jeudi 10 juillet 2025 • Durée 32:07

What do you do when you’re working on a big climate change project that could help the world reach the goals of the Paris Agreement, and the U.S. elects a president who wants to expand the fossil fuel industry? Canada's National Observer talked with environmentalist and author Bill McKibben, the man who brought climate change awareness to the public. He has been mobilizing grassroots action against fossil fuel development for decades. Bill McKibben thinks Donald Trump's Drill Baby Drill policies are not only taking the climate change fight back 50 years but are also putting the U.S. far behind China in the race to develop renewable energy. Tzeporah Berman and South African activist Kumi Naidoo of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty initiative have been travelling the world to find out just how countries are responding to the U.S. policies. They have some positive news to report.
