Environmentally Speaking
Welcome to Environmentally Speaking.
The environment is everything, literally, and on this podcast, no environmental topic is off-limits. We are living in unprecedented times. Times of threats to our environment, our health, and our freedom. Environmental degradation has resulted in the loss of livelihoods, lives, cultures, knowledges, and heritages. We are in the midst of a global-scale environmental crisis…climate change. What are our leaders doing to fight against this? What are you doing to fight against this? For our returning listeners, we have rebranded. So you would have been with us from what is now Season 1, CovidChat, where we discussed the multidimensional impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. Thank you for sticking with us. Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook @Ourfootprintja. Visit our website www.ourfootprintja.org.

Climate on the Ballot: Education
We're back!
Season 4 is ‘Climate on the Ballot’. This election season we want to see the issues that affect us most at the forefront of the discussion.
That means more meaningful dialogue on climate change through the lens of our everyday struggles and concerns.
Episode 1 focusses on education. How does climate change affect the classroom? and how do we create a better future for our students through climate education?
We talk to Dr. Sharon Bramwell-Lalor, UWI Lecturer training generations of teachers, and repeat guest Jhada Haughten, science teacher and member of the JCCYC about the realities of the classroom within the context of climate change.
