Episode description
Climactic goes behind the scenes with Act on Climate, Friends of the Earth's premiere political action group, as they gear up to fight a pivotal state election. This one's for you if you've ever wondered what political/climate activism is really like. And, spoiler alert, they're a bunch of relatable, earnest, caring people.
This is the first miniseries from Climactic made in collaboration with an environmental group, and we couldn't have a better partner in this than Act on Climate. For the next 8 weeks we'll be sharing their stories, which they're already telling every Monday night at FoE Smith Street, Fitzroy, and on their excellent Twitter, Facebook, and blog. Links below. If this has sparked an interest in you to get involved in this, or other campaigns, feel free to come along or drop a message to them.
We'll be back next Sunday, same time same place, with week 2 of this exciting series.
Special Guest: Leigh Ewbank.
