About this episode
This week, I’m delighted to welcome guest editor Dr. Kate Marvel. She's a theoretical physicist turned climate scientist whose brilliance, honesty, and humour shine through everything she writes.
In this edition of Talking Climate, Kate reflects on the role of emotion in science, the very real threats to climate research in the U.S., and why embracing our full humanity is essential to building a better future.
She also offers tangible ways to stand up for science and take climate action, from calling elected officials to joining local efforts for resilience and justice. Kate's thoughts are timely, powerful, and deeply human. I hope you’ll give them a read and, as always, share what you learn with people you know!
Find Kate on Bluesky or on her website!
