In this episode, Sarah interviews Project Drawdown’s Jamie Alexander and Aiyana Bodi, digging into topics like…

how designers (and anyone) can integrate their passion for climate action into their job roles wherever they currently work, and…

pushing the companies they work for towards a higher standard of corporate climate action.

In this episode, Sarah Harrison sits down with climate communications consultant and climate activist Cass Hebron, founder and editor of The Green Fix newsletter.

Listen in to learn more about her work as a communications consultant for environmental organizations, and why it’s so important to talk about our climate crisis with the people in your life — and how to go about doing that in a way that is effective, not awkward.

Climate Designers will be presenting a workshop facilitated by Cass Hebron on Monday, August 15, called How to Talk About the Climate Crisis Without Alienating Your Coworkers, as part of our Global Party Series. This episode will give you a little sneak peek before the main event next week.

In this episode, Marc and Sarah discuss the latest Conference of the Parties and whether the outcomes from that meeting matched our expectations, and, real talk, what we expect to happen next. This episode was recorded on Wednesday, November 10, 2021, on the 10th day of COP26.

The media won’t speak truth to power. They can’t. The power in question is what keeps the media going.

Join us as we break this down and discuss why the mass media coverage of climate change is not the whole truth, what’s missing, and why they keep it from us.

We also talk about the result on society of this situation — climate anxiety, nihilism, and ultimately more consumerism, which is good for capitalism and the media machine.

And we don’t just leave you with that mess, we talk about what to do instead!

Join Marc & Sarah in the first of a series inspired by War on Women’s song lyrics “Let’s raise some wonderful, beautiful hell.”

The episodes in this series will be about an hour long, with informal, candid conversation between Marc & Sarah about topics we don’t hear many people talking about but that really need to be said.

This first episode discusses what so many people in the environmental movement get wrong — calling for us to “save the planet.”

Tune in to find out why we think this narrative is actually harmful, and what we need to be thinking about instead.
