First, we ask Bill McKibben, best-selling author and co-founder of 350.org, and Larry Schweiger, President and CEO of the National Wildlife Federation and author of "Last Chance: Preserving Life on Earth", if the international conference on climate will finally take action to thwart more disasters? |

|
Then, we ask economist James Galbraith and George Zornick, a writer at The Nation, if the "fiscal cliff" is real or if it is a political tool to change the shape of government? |

Finally, we talk about what the vote on Palestinian statehood means for the future of the conflict in Israel and Palestine. Mark Perry joins us |
