    COP 26 with India Logan Riley

    On their way from COP 26 in Glasgow to Jokkmokk in Sápmi, India Logan Riley crashed for a week at Phoebe's place in Gothenburg. After a week long meandering conversation about the crises at hand and the world that could be with a winter swim and a few dark laughs in between, the two sat down to record this podcast.  The discussion delves into big feelings around climate change, what took India to COP in the first place, what keeps them coming back, the reaction to Trump's election during COP 22, what NZ needs to do to act meaningfully on climate change, and what we need to do to make NZ act meaningfully on climate change.  India organises with Te Ara Whatu and Action Station.
