This Doctor Has the Prescription for Both COVID and Climate

Temperature Check is a podcast from Grist at the intersection of climate and justice. It’s about the people leading climate action and climate solutions, and stories that show the pathways to a more sustainable, equitable future.Season 3 is all about pivot points: How does a special education teacher nearing retirement become a renowned environmental justice advocate? What leads a climate journalist to become an electrician, or a corporate executive to create a mobility-justice nonprofit? We asked six climate and justice leaders to share their stories of changing course in their lives or careers in order to bring meaningful change to their communities. Hosted on Acast.
