Description

On episode 5 of The Periodic Fable, Cameron & Hallam are joined by Sarah Davidson, who is the Group Sustainability Coordinator for Croda. Sarah discusses her journey into the world of chemistry, and takes a look back at her path from A-Level, to University and into her MSc. She then dives into the world of sustainability, not only in the industry, but also in her day to day life. In May, Sarah was named the Chemical Industries Association's Young Ambassador, and she tells us all about what she's got planned for the following 12 months. Later,  Cameron shares a true periodic fable looking into the world of the so-called father of modern chemistry Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier, whilst delving into the world of his relatively unknown wife, Marrie-Anne, who left her own imprint into the world of chemistry. Hallam then shares with us the news in the world of chemistry, this week, talking about the IPCC climate change report, just recently published.

Welcome to The Periodic Fable, the podcast where we take a dive into the world of chemistry with Bryony, Cameron & Hallam. In The Periodic Fable, we want to take complex chemistry related topics in society and the media today, humanize them and make them easy to understand. We want to have discussions about all things chemistry, whether that's the world of sustainability and cleaner living, to careers in the chemical industry. Joining us on the podcast are champions of industry who may be very junior in their careers and wanting to create change from within, to senior careerists who've got a wealth of experience. We want our guests to come on and give their side of the chemical story. We want to use this space to inform and inspire. Whether you're considering a chemical career, or whether you just want to learn more about the world of science & chemistry, The Periodic Fable will be a space for you.
