The Weight of Nature, with Clayton Page Aldern
Brain-eating amoebae are only the start of it. Just you wait until Clayton Aldern talks you through the ways big and small that climate change is changing what it means to be you. From your mood to your expectations and even your mental model of the whole world - your consciousness itself, for Chri…
Fear of Numbers, with Rob Eastaway
The history of humans arguing about climate change is often just people throwing large numbers at each other. So it's time for an episode about how we think about numbers, why our brains are prone to falling for dodgy sums dressed up as facts, and how we can all learn to maths up a bit.
Joining m…
Hope, with Pancho Lewis
Hope! What is it good for? (Absolutely every'thin).
We ain't doing much about the climate crisis without it. Movements are founded on it, and most campaigns are about wanting us to feel it. Which is exhilarating for those who feel it most urgently - but what about everyone else?
The good news is …
Use Your Fear, with Sarah Jaquette Ray
Climate change is REALLY SCARY, right, but that doesn't mean you have to wibble helplessly in the corner. While the go-to currency of most climate awareness campaigns is 'hope' – does fear get a bad press? It turns out fear is a great motivator of climate action too, as long as we learn how to use …
The Pilot who Quit for the Climate, with Joel Walker
In this episode I go for a walk in the woods with a former airline pilot who packed it in because of his climate anxiety. Joel Walker flew for years but could never quite ignore the state of the planet - like the forest fires and melting glaciers he could see from his cockpit. Eventually, in 2025, …
The Activist Script, with Anthea Lawson
I am good. I protest. I save people. I must save the world - now. If this even slightly feels like something you've told yourself, then this episode is for you.
Author and campaigner Anthea Lawson's brilliant new book is called How Not To Save The World. It's about the 'script' that activists - i…
The War on Net Zero, with Becca Massey-Chase
For most of the last two decades, the right of UK politics were all for climate action. Heck, in 2019 a Conservative Prime Minister signed us up to net zero emissions by 2050! But a few short years later both of the two major parties on the right are now very much against 'net "stupid" zero', and …
What Lies Beneath, with Renée Lertzman
You're a mature, rational adult who can face massive, existential problems head-on, right? Or is your brain more like a medieval dungeon: a deep dark place in which you chuck things you don't want to think about, and throw away the key? Uh-oh.
My guest on this episode, the esteemed psychologist, T…
Make Environmentalism Dangerous Again, with Nicholas Beuret
**Warning: this episode contains swears**
My guest on this episode of Your Brain on Climate says it's time environmentalism grew some teeth. He wants YOU to actively disrupt destructive activity – to sabotage the machines that are destroying the Earth – because asking politely isn't getting us wher…
Your Brain on Fast Fashion, with Lucy Siegle
Fast fashion: terrible for the planet, awful for its workers, and hypercharged by the infinite marketing potential of social media. But we love to look cool (well, I don't, but you take the point). And let's face it, there's something very appealing about getting your clothes for very cheap. So in …
