Listen "Episode 8: Climate Conversations with Kids & Adults (Double-Length Episode for Earth Month!)"
Episode Synopsis
Special double episode to celebrate Earth Month! While we know that talking about the climate crisis can lead to action, it can be a tough topic to bring up with family and friends. We get tips from Anu Ramamurty, founder of Kat Kid Adventure, an organization educating young children about the climate. We also hear from Marcia Pugsley, a retired clinical social worker and grandmother. Learn how to have fun, meaningful climate conversations with the children and adults in your life.
Great guest quote: “We believe it's never too early to talk to kids about climate change.”
