Episode notes

This week's episode focuses on individual actions we can take to help the climate. Doctor Elizabeth johnson suggests thinking of it like a ven diagram. What are you good at? And then what is the work that needs doing? She says there are heaps of opportunities for individuals to be part of pushing forward these larger changes, which will affect major sources of omissions.

Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson. You loved her Oceanology episode and now she is in your feed to address everyone’s agonizing internal question: IS MY CARBON FOOTPRINT BS?! I don’t drop a lot of podcast episodes into my precious Ologies feed, but this topic was so wonderfully covered by Dr. Johnson and co-hot Alex Blumberg that I had to do it. And as a bonus, stay tuned for Wednesday’s episode between me and my old friend C. Andrew Hall, the creative director of the non-profit illustration collective, the Drawdown Design Project. I’ve been consulting with him for 2 years on a giant project that just dropped and I think you’ll love what he has to say about our individual roles and responsibilities in climate change.

So yes: onward with “How to Save a Planet.”
