    3x01 The sound of West Africa's changing climate

    How does climate change sound? We interview Martin Parker, Prof Doug Parker, Prof Benjamin Lamptey and Freddy Gadrie, who transformed climate information from Ghana and Niger into music through data sonification. Using data from the past and climate projections of the future, this  team of curious scientists and musicians use a different approach to communicate climate change and raise awareness of the future impacts of changes in climate and weather patterns. We hope you enjoy it! Visit our website: https://www.theclimatepress.com/podcast

    2x07 Climate change and the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, with Prof Mike Tipton and Paloma Trascasa-Castro

    The Tokyo 2020 Olympic officially kicked off on July 23rd against the controversial backdrop of surging covid-19 cases and an eerily quiet Tokyo city. On top of this, there are mounting concerns and evidence of how climate change related extreme heat and high levels of humidity are posing risks and impacting athletes at these Olympic games. The Rings of Fire report published in May 2021 and produced by the British Association for Sustainable Sport (BASIS) brings together scientists and athletes to discuss these risks and impacts. We sit down with two authors of the report: our very own Paloma Trascasa-Castro, PhD researcher from the Institute for Climate and Atmospheric Science, at the University of Leeds; and Mike Tipton, Professor of Human and Applied Physiology from the Extreme Environments Laboratory, at the University of Portsmouth.

    2x06 The IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report | Behind the scenes with Dr Amanda Maycock

    The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) is the United Nations body for assessing the science of climate change. During the last 4 years, scientists from around the world have been working on the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6), that will provide key information about the current state of climate change, future projections, adaptation and mitigation. Dr Amanda Maycock, Associate Professor in Climate Dynamics at the University of Leeds, has been a lead author in Working Group I, which assesses the physical science basis of climate change. She shares with us her experience as a first time lead IPCC author and a sneak peek of AR6.

    Climate Strike

    The Climate Press presents: Climate Strike A documentary inspired by the Fridays for Future climate strikes originally broadcast on BCB Radio as part of the Bradford Science Festival Written, produced, edited, and presented by Tom Wood twitter.com/TomWoodScience The documentary features many interviews with protestors at last year’s Fridays For Future climate strikes. Tom spoke to representatives of the Green Party of England and Wales, Population Matters, Stand Up To Racism, NHS in Leeds doctors, a vegan campaign group, International Marxist Tendency (IMT) amongst others. Importantly, Tom also spoke to young people to gather their perspectives on the climate crisis. Tom interviewed a representative of Bradford Council, which recently declared a #ClimateEmergency, to understand the local government response. Tom also discussed the recent Leeds Climate Commission Citizen’s Assembly with scientific advisor, Dr Cat Scott, and spoke to Dr Leighton Regayre about the implications of the pandemic on the way we conduct climate science and on the wider society. The documentary features music exclusively from @listeningsessionsuk and @futurepastzine affiliated artists. www.theclimatepress.com TRACKLIST: Vice – Who Let Go [Futurepast Zine] L-Qui – Self Centred [Unreleased] Stormcatz – Split [Futurepast Zine] Jacques Golding – Air Car Park [Unreleased] Stormcatz – Infant [Futurepast Zine] Wooda – Release [Unreleased] Doctagonr – Unrest [Futurepast Zine] Analias – DGF [Alternative Architecture] Guerilla Monk – Misty Morning [Futurepast Zine] Analias – Fade 1 Way [Greyest Hits Vol.2] noname - Can't Remember Where or When [Unreleased] Yilan – Lost Signals [Unreleased] L-Qui – Quarantine Loop [Unreleased] Jacques Golding – Textile Factory [Unreleased] Yilan – Pipeline [Unreleased] Ryobra – Luminous [Unreleased] Joe Corfield – 6am [Radio Juicy] Anjin – Bruk Up [Futurepast Zine] Joe Corfield – Sounds Of The Universe [Radio Juicy] Yilan – Fragments [Unreleased]

    2x05 A podcast on how to make a podcast

    On this episode we share with you some tips and tricks on how to start you own podcast from scratch without any previous experience. From advice on web hosts to the podcast edition process, we interview ourselves and talk about our own experiences with The Climate Press, how did we start, how did we find our guests, our blogs, etc. At the end all you need is a good idea and willingness to make it happen! We hope you enjoy it, and remember: make love, not CO2!

    2x04 How do we reduce emissions in health systems?

    Earlier this year, the UK's National Health Service (NHS) announced plans to become the first net-zero health service in the world. In this episode The Climate Press ventures on a mission to understand what this declaration means in practice for our health services.  We speak with Alexis Percival, an Environmental and Sustainability Lead with the NHS Ambulance Service, about some of the challenges and the momentum needed to even begin this journey towards becoming net-zero. We even look beyond the NHS and speak with Dr. Tim Keady, a Specialist Registrar (SpR) in Anaesthesiology with the Health Service Executive (HSE) in Ireland, about the contribution of emissions from anaesthetic gases and the importance of educating practitioners and patients about more sustainable healthcare services.

    2x03 Chasing the clouds

    EUREC4A, is an international initiative in support of the World Climate Research Programme's Grand Science Challenge on Clouds, Circulation and Climate Sensitivity. The field campaign took place between 20 January and 20 February 2020 with operations based out of Barbados. On this episode we have a very special interviewer, Anna Lesbros, a 14-year-old student that came from France to Leeds to discover how research is carried out at the University. Anna will infiltrate in the heart of the field campaign and interview 8 members of the Eurec4a project: - Anna-Lea Albright (PhD student at LMD, Paris, France) - Professor Alan Blyth (NCAS, University of Leeds, UK) - Dr Sandrine Bony (LMD, Paris, France) - Dr Leif Denby (University of Leeds, UK) - Dr Arlene Laing (Director of the Caribbean Meteorological Organization) - Professor Szymon Malinowski (University of Warsaw, Poland) - Professor Doug Parker (University of Leeds, UK) - Dr Raphaela Vogel (LMD, Paris, France) EUREC4A aims at advancing understanding of the interplay between clouds, convection and circulation and their role in climate change. But why is the project important? How's a day in the life of an atmospheric scientist during a field campaign? How do they take measurements of clouds? Listen to the episode and find out more about this exciting way of doing science. We hope you enjoy it! "Look around you...the world is interesting and beautiful, and meteorology is about applying mathematics and physics to study your closest environment"
