This episode was recorded in collaboration with Hothouse Book Club, it is a climate justice book club that meets every six weeks IRL and online. This panel talk was part of our Solastalgic Summer event celebrating our 1st anniversary as a group.

I was joined by Tori Tsui, author and a fierce advocate for climate justice and Samrawit Gougsa, co-lead of the Land Body Ecologies research group at the Wellcome Trust and Head of Communications at Minority Rights Group and Damien Gayle, environment correspondent for the Guardian.
