Because Why?! The Science and Society Pod.
Bonus Episode! Your actions and how you make the world a better place, this Earth Day.
22 Apr 2024
Caring about the environment can be quite isolating. The news is rarely cheerful about the state of the planet (despite plenty of good things going on) and that is leading to skyrocketing rates of eco-anxiety even in children as young as five. There is a general sense of apathy is settling in amongst people who are beginning to feel it is too late. It certainly isn't. And I did an episode about that a few weeks ago, so I won't rehash that story. But I want to tackle the isolating part. Because you are not alone. Millions of people around the world are working every day to protect and rehabilitate our planet. Just listen. I put the call our on social media last week for people to send me in messages with what they do to make the world a better place. Some of you sent in voice messages, some of you sent in written ones, and I am going to share them here, so you don't feel so alone.
