Jack Harries on meeting Obama, seeing climate change first-hand and his second favourite place in Hackney

On a trip to Greenland, Jack Harries saw a huge chunk of ice break off a glacier and crash into the sea. Already a keen film maker with an interest in travel, he knew then what he wanted to dedicate his life to - telling the stories of climate change. Years later, he’s been all over the world, finding the people most affected by the climate crisis and giving them a voice in his documentary series A Seat at The Table. Join Jack now, on a warm day in London’s Victoria Park, as he discusses the power of community activism, the need for storytelling and completely fluffing his lines when he met Barack Obama. A Life More Wild is an 18Sixty production, brought to you by Canopy & Stars. Sound recording by Alannah Chance, production by Clarissa Maycock. Our theme music is by Billie Marten.
