The WVU Climate Conversations podcast was inspired by a TED talk by Climate scientist Katherine Hayhoe, where she said that the most important thing you can do to fight climate change is to talk about it. Therefore, the aim of each Climate Conversations episode is to do just that: to talk about an aspect of climate change, and to keep the conversation going. Hosted by students from the Fall 2019 Honors Book Club, each episode features a different guest speaker from in and around West Virginia University talking about important aspects of climate change.
Podcast produced by WVU Student Media.
