PODCAST RECOMMENDATION
BY SHANAN R .
Podcast name : A Matter of Degrees Language : English Available : Apple , Spotify , and Google Podcasts Catchphrase : Give up your climate guilt . Sharpen your curiosity . Hosts : Dr . Leah Stokes and Dr . Katharine Wilkinson Best listened to : When contemplating how individual behavior can have an impact on the climate crisis and what you / we can actually DO .
The nine episodes created so far of this podcast dive into a variety of climate topics ( a little US-centered so far ). The two hosts cover the topics in detail and bring in specialists to provide additional information when needed . I find the podcasts organized and easy to listen to , but , more importantly , I come away with a greater knowledge of climate change issues that are relevant NOW ( such as carbon offsets , two degrees , and electric utilities ). A quote directly from the podcast : “ This show is for the climatecurious people who know climate change is a problem but are trying to figure out how to tackle it .”
