Wolfe Power Club's Max Austin has just been to COP30, the biggest climate event every year. This week, we examine COP30's ambitions, relevance in a time of economic pressures on climate outcomes and why Britain is not funding the Tropical Forest Forever Fund. The Fund is aiming to raise $125 billion to make it more economically worthwhile to keep a tree in the ground than to sell for forestry tree.

We also look into the economic reality of Brazil's government also supporting new oil and gas licenses at the same time investing into COP30.

In a political twist few saw coming, Rob Jetten's D66 (Democratics 66) has defeated Geert Wilders’ PVV (Party for Freedom), marking a new chapter for Dutch and European politics.

In this week's episode, host Alex Wolfe is joined by Adriaan Andringa, VP of Business Development at GetFocus, to examine how Jetten led D66 to victory, what it means for the Netherlands’ energy and climate policies and how this centrist success challenges the rise of right-wing populism across Europe.

Adriaan Andringa is VP Business Development for AI Tech forecasting startup GetFocus in the Netherlands. He worked as a lobbyist for the Dutch technological industry for many years, after having worked for political party D66 as political advisor, press secretary and national campaign manager. He was elected to city council as party leader twice and joined the Obama campaign in New Hampshire in 2016. He's also a published author and political commentator, analysing politics in the US, the Netherlands and increasingly Germany where he now lives.

Since the introduction of Russian sanctions in 2022, the governments of the US, UK and Germany have each faced major political downfall, driven by soaring energy costs. This week, we ask: ‘Who are the real winners and losers of these sanctions when Vladimir Putin remains firmly in power?’

View previous guest Ron's and Reuters' article on the sanctioned oil companies here: https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-sanctioned-russian-oil-majors-rosneft-lukoil-2025-10-23/
