Our Fight Against Climate Collapse

“It’s really hard to discuss stuff like this because it is really distressing. Especially when Maddie was in prison. Everything was up in the air and nobody really knew what was going on.”

In this episode brother and sister Henry and Maddie are talking about how they have chosen to tackle the climate emergency in different ways. In 2022 Maddie was arrested and spent time in jail after she threw human waste on a memorial of Captain Tom Moore as a protest against fossil fuel use. Younger sibling Henry is going to uni to study renewable energy engineering.

Please take care when listening as you might feel affected by some of the issues discussed & there is some swearing.
