Customer Reviews
Love the podcast not the music
I love that I can learn something daily from this podcast, but honestly, the intro music is so annoying I skip it sometimes to avoid having to listen to the music.
Great climate pod
Love the variety of climate related stories that this pod tells
Love these daily climate inspiring podcasts
This is the first podcast I listen to each day for inspiration and it never disappoints. It is very informative about scientists, climate advoactes, researchers, and every day citizens who have been impacted by climate change and now want to make a difference educating others and acting on it. I highly recommend this podcast.
