#13 | The intersectionality of climate change (and how to take action)

The Tea on Sustainable Living

May 31 2022 • 33 mins

Are you a “set it and forget it” environmentalist, or do you need to know the details behind each action you take?

In this week's episode, we take a look at some of the broader issues that intersect with sustainable practices and advocating against climate change. When so much is interconnected, how do we take action?

We have a conversation that many of you will be familiar with. Do we focus on individual or systemic action? How do we choose where to focus our energies? Do we choose to trust the information that comes to us from NGOs or other organisations? Or do we need to research everything for ourselves?

In a world where there is so much to be done, how do we choose what to do?

So grab some tea, get comfy, and hit that play button to hear us attempt to answer these questions for ourselves.
