If you've made it here, welcome. This is the very first episode of Voice for the Blue, my new weekly podcast where I talk candidly about the ocean, the climate crisis, and what it actually means to care in a world that often feels like it’s unravelling.
In this opening episode, I’m taking aim at one of the most overused and misleading phrases in environmentalism: “We need to save the planet.” Here’s the truth, the planet will be fine. What’s at stake is us.
I talk about why framing climate change as distant, abstract, or purely about wildlife misses the point, and why making it personal, about health, food, housing, and the people we love, is the only way forward. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure where to start, this one’s for you.
It’s honest, occasionally sarcastic, definitely imperfect, but it’s real.
Thanks for listening. I’m so glad you’re here.
