    01: How can we be better planet savers?

    Ash and Jess begin in a world of climate anxiety - and to get out of it they’re going to need a plan. We go back to basics - what even is climate change? And what do we need to do to stop it? We unpack the concept of collective action - why it works and where it’s worked in the past. We realise that  instead of individual action we need to work out how to change the system - so together, we’re ditching the guilt and self-blame and finding where our personal ‘superpowers’ fit within collective climate action. So grab a mate, share this podcast with them, and then sit down and make a plan together.
