I’m Just Warming Up...
The scariest implications of climate change are not the physical changes to the world around us. What truly scares us is the changes within our minds that we know are coming. We don't grieve for the old world that is changing - we grieve for the old certainties that we thought were unchanging. This is a podcast by a sociologist about Us - in a world that is changing around us, underneath us, because of us, and despite us. ___________________________________________________ Theme music: Sujeto.tacito, CC BY-SA 3.0 <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0>, via Wikimedia Commons
