S10 Ep2: 2: Conduit Conversations at COP26: Simon Mundy

Journalist and author Simon Mundy recently travelled across six continents to meet the people embroiled in a race to survive, adapt, and innovate as a response to climate change. Now that the climate emergency has moved from a fringe issue to a core one, he contemplates whether powerful business leaders and policymakers being ambitious enough in responding to the science and to the plights of climate-affected citizens around the world. He also questions whether the voices of those most vulnerable to climate change, like those he met on his travels, are being heard in spaces like COP conferences? Simon shares personal insights from the people he met – scientists, miners, entrepreneurs, farmers, and senior policymakers – in this rich and ranging discussion with Paul van Zyl on life on the front lines of the climate crisis.
