Listen "Why Sustainability is a vital skill to learn"
Episode Synopsis
This time we’re taking another closer look at one of Warwick’s 12 core skills – specifically, sustainability.
In this episode, skills developer Steven Burke caught up Laura Allison, a qualified dentist who swapped canines for carbon literacy – sorry, couldn’t resist – and pursued her passion for sustainability, becoming a sustainability co-ordinator here at Warwick in 2023. Laura has plenty to offer, including what sustainability means, why it’s important whatever sector you plan to work in, and some insights as to whether eating bananas is bad for the environment.
