In this week’s episode we look at an excerpt from Maasechet Taanit about Rav Hunah and how he would ride around in his golden carriage identifying walls that were in danger of falling, notifying the owners, and requiring the walls to be repaired, either with the owner’s money or Rav Hunah’s (if the owner couldn’t afford repairs). We talk about how this story shows an early rabbinical form of regulating buildings, but also incentivizing their upgrades, and how building weatherization and energy efficiency are two ways we can act to slow climate change. We also talk about getting into climate action in one’s middle age, giving charity in a way that also fights climate change, and the importance of imagination in environmentalism.
