COVID-19 and climate change - March 10, 2020
Hi friends! This week we dive in and talk about COVID-19 (aka the novel coronavirus), after avoiding it as long as we could! We discuss COVID-19’s impact on climate change and oil prices, and a powerful succulent in South Africa called spekboom. Oh! And Curtis rants about falling down a rabbit hole of trying to source an article’s information. Enjoy!

Everyone feels eco-anxiety, but support systems are growing - March 3, 2020
Hey friends! This week we discuss the awesome new federal government regulations to protect right whales, a court ruling preventing Heathrow airport expansions because of the Paris Agreement, and how eco-anxiety is real, everyone is dealing with it (including scientists!), but awareness growing and support systems are becoming more available. Also, apologies for Louis the cat’s multiple outbursts (oops).
