Climate Change w/ Anika Molesworth What Shall We Do About...?

    • Society & Culture

This podcast has always aimed to fix the world's less pressing problems, but 72 episodes in, it's time for a shake up.

I've always wanted to look at the issue of climate change, because here in Australia, not enough is being done about it. Someone who has been quite vocal about the issue, with a lived experience of its effects, is Dr. Anika Molesworth.

Anika moved to a sheep station outside of Broken Hill when she was 12, just as the Millennium Drought hit. She witnessed firsthand the way in which her surroundings changed, becoming dry, and with challenges of heat waves and dust storms.

Anika's new book Our Sunburnt Country is a hope-filled story of her life, and shares that we can indeed make a difference despite the enormity of the challenge. We discuss plenty in this challenging, yet hopeful chat.

Anika's new book is Our Sunburnt Country, and you can find Anika on Twitter @AnikaMolesworth.
