Star of Bombay & Climate Change

Season 5, Ep. 8
•

Do our actions really matter for combating climate change?


Sarah hopes they bloody do given how much effort she puts in and the crazy ideas she comes up with to make us more sustainable.


But what about Áine and other young people, how can we keep them engaged when faced with doom and gloom all the time? 


Can a positive focus help guide them to be more sustainable? If so how? 


That’s what we will be discussing this week with our guest, Annabel Collinson, Business Partner & Director of Content at Visions of Soon


And we’ll be pairing this with a little Star of Bombay


Cheers
