The final episode of the Climate History podcast is also the first episode of The Climate Chronicles, a new podcast created, produced, and narrated by our host, Professor Dagomar Degroot of Georgetown University.
The Climate Chronicles is a unique multimedia production that uses dramatic storytelling to explain how climate change shaped the history of humanity, from our evolution to the current climate crisis.
It explores how and why climate changed in the past; how researchers in many fields identify human responses to past climate changes; how scientists first learned about the history of climate change; and what this history could tell us about the future.
In our introductory episode, Professor Degroot uses one of the great adventure stories of the seventeenth century - the tale of fourteen desperate men deserted on two tiny Arctic islands - to identify key themes in the history of climate change.
You can find The Climate Chronicles wherever you listen to podcasts, or you can visit TheClimateChronicles.com to view episode trailers, download audio files, and read illustrated transcripts with maps, graphs, infographics, and citations.

Beyond Academia: Climate Change Storytelling and Activism in a Warming World
In the 11th episode of Climate History, co-hosts Dagomar Degroot and Emma Moesswilde interview Victoria Herrmann, president and managing director of the Arctic Institute and one of Apolitical's top 100 influencers on climate policy. Dr. Herrmann's scholarship has focused on media representations of the Arctic and its peoples. Yet while completing her PhD as a Gates Scholar in the Scott Polar Institute at Cambridge University, Herrmann launched several projects aimed at building adaptation to climate change in coastal communities. Her focus has been to connect scholars with stakeholders on the ground, turning abstract knowledge into tangible action.
In this interview, we discuss how climate change scholarship can (and perhaps should) inform concrete action, and how action can enrich scholarship. We consider how graduate students can find their public voice, weigh the importance of storytelling for encouraging climate change action, and contemplate sources of hope in a rapidly warming world.
