An edutaining easy-listening podcast about all things eco, hosted by Juliet Kinsman and Simon London. Our mission is to engage people with the WHY it matters and the how and what to do when it comes to sustainability and tackling the climate emergency — but in simple terms, with a little laughter along the way. In each episode, Simon and Juliet discuss serious topical sustainability stories and cultural affairs and chat with thought-provoking experts. And let’s face it, everyone’s feeling a little sustainability fatigue, and while we also need to know the facts, goodness knows we also need a little joy in our eco-anxiety-riddled lives.
