NEWS FROM A WORLD IN FLUX
Extinction Rebellion’s co-founder Clare Farrell and conservation scientist Dr Charlie Gardner team up once more to discuss issues and stories they feel are not getting enough airtime. They want to make sure that the latest news in science and important reports that are relevant to the climate and ecological crisis are flagged and explained in ways that are easy to understand.
EPISODE 25: Wet bulb disasters, importing trees, and prison update?
In this episode Clare and Charlie discuss new research into when wet bulb temperatures become dangerous to humans. Charlie shares his own study into the need for conservation by assisted colonisation as climate change disrupts native ecosystems. Clare gives an update on the status of imprisoned activists in the UK. And a new book by Scientist for XR is revealed.
