Every story is a climate story - Ep. 09

May 24, 2023 • 32 mins
We know a lot about the crisis. We know that it is time to progress from understanding the problems to solving them. However, we also know that there is no perfect solution. It is a matter of shifting understanding and knowledge from science to society, from data to stories, from facts to solutions. This episode is where Earth sciences meet journalism to address overarching solutions that already exist, ones that need global and lo...

How much is it? The cost of climate change - Ep. 08

March 29, 2023 • 26 mins
Money moves the attention of people, investors, and capital owners. Money is part of many solutions to the climate deadlock. But numbers are not enough to calculate the economic value of the climate issue. Numbers are only the final step on a road that passes through many crossroads: climate change has huge economic, social and cultural costs. Assessing these costs is challenging yet vital for our planet's future. And when it comes...

Climate on trial - Ep. 07

February 24, 2023 • 25 mins
The Urgenda case was the game changer. It opened up a new dialogue between human rights law and climate science, while it marked a watershed moment for climate justice: from then on, we saw new measures to protect people from the harms posed by climate change. We start from there with the voices of those who experienced the Urgenda case on the front line.
We tell the story of climate litigation and why it is a crucial aspect of the...

With stories of people in the Global South where natural resources "are being used as a weapon."

Carbon: A Matter of Budget - Ep. 05

December 15, 2022 • 26 mins
A trip among satellites, robots and bottles. One that oscillates between the heights of the atmosphere and the surface of the sea.
We ride on carbon dioxide molecules to understand how relevant the word budget can be in delivering a future where climate neutrality takes shape.
An attainable horizon as long as we follow a simple little rule: "Don't look at what they say. Look at what we're doing”.

For Joellen Russell, the future is i...

November 10, 2022 • 24 mins
Behind the scenes of the climate negotiations, where the whole world sits around the same table. We discover the swing of frustration and excitement underlying the process that brings to globally awaited treaties. It is a plot of interminable sessions, under the danger of a deadlock that is always around the corner, behind a comma or a single concept.
Scientists, delegates and a journalist unveil how a climate agreement takes shape...

The Sound of Ice - Ep.02

July 29, 2022 • 27 mins
Listen to the numbers. From an ice-breaker in the Arctic to the piano keyboard, scientific indicators become music and gestures, a narrative made of science and digital art. An experimental tale of the emotion at the heart of the research. This is how Judy Twedt creates data-driven soundtracks from sea ice.

In this second episode, we explore the sound of ice and what microbes have to say to us. In the words of microbiologist Donato ...
