Episode description

Climactic thanks the Impact Studios team for allowing us to share this five-part series with you. 

Maybe the mention of our climate future makes you feel anxious, angry, scared or just detached. If so you're not alone.

Learning to talk about climate change and having meaningful conversations with those who agree and disagree with you on the subject is a powerful step we can take to get the action on climate we need.

Hear from UTS Professor of Climate and Business Bob Carr in conversation with social researcher and author Dr Rebecca Huntley as they discuss her latest book How to Talk About Climate Change in a Way That Makes a Difference, and explore why we find it so hard to talk about climate.

UTS 4 Climate is a five-part podcast series bringing together leading thinkers from politics, economics, science and journalism to continue the conversation on climate change.

This audio series creates a space to explore climate change from all angles and find practical answers to what we can do to address the climate crisis and secure our futures.

The series is hosted by marine science student Erika Wagner, who works at the Institute for Sustainable Futures. Erika introduces listeners to a range of fascinating conversations held in 2020 by Professor the Honourable Bob Carr, NSW's longest-serving Premier, former Foreign Minister of Australia and UTS Industry Professor of Climate and Business.

Hear from a diverse range of guests on where Australia has gone wrong on our approach to climate, opportunities to reduce carbon emissions, how to talk about climate in a way that makes a difference, and what it will take to achieve a sustainable future.

This podcast was made by Impact Studios at UTS in collaboration with the Institute for Sustainable Futures.
