Description
Charmian Love wants you to shake up your mindset. More specifically, to stop worrying about whether you’re on the right or wrong side of the climate conversation and instead focus on taking action. Newsflash: We all have a role to play and it is time to move beyond the blame game and focus on solutions. In this first episode of Climate Curious, Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst speak to Charmian Love, Social Entrepreneur in Residence at the Skoll Centre at the University of Oxford and co-founder of B Lab UK. Charmian shares how we need to actively work towards systems level fixes while also taking individual action against climate change. From thinking like a sunflower to approaching problems and solutions as interconnected, our conversation explores how we can cultivate a mindset to access the climate conversation and why Charmian believes kindness and creativity are at the heart of a healthy planet. And don’t miss Charmian, Ben and Maryam’s ‘Climate Confessions’ at the end of the episode to discover the shady secret hiding in their drawers.Learn more: https://tedxlondon.com/news/climate-curious-why-climate-change-is-everyones-business/

How to be a global food citizen: Veganism isn’t the only answer to climate change, dignity and equity are, says knowledge broker, community chef and food policy-maker, Dee Woods. In this week’s Climate Curious by TEDxLondon, we’re discussing food – yum! Contributing to a whopping 21-37% of greenhouse gas emissions, the global food system needs a rethink, stat. Instead of restricting our diets, we need to reconnect with where our food comes from – so we can start making more localised, equitable choices. Join co-hosts Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst to hear Dee breakdown why solving bigger problems of the food industry can help us fight climate change, how chicken shops are in fact a policy-driven food apartheid, and why building localised food economies is essential to the future of people and planet.
