We wanted to bring forward an attitude of compassion rather than anxiety about a topic that can generate a lot of emotions and reactions.\n\nIn this episode, we talk about the joys and challenges of collaborating with a fast-moving global team of volunteer writers, thinkers, researchers and designers; our hope and confidence in young people; what climate action each of us will take forward from this collaboration into our own lives \u2013 and what it\u2019s like to pivot when Seth Godin tells you to start from square one. (Spoiler: It all works out even better in the end.) \n\nFor more information on the project, and to pre-order your copy visit thecarbonalmanac.org","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/2817cea6-fce1-441d-a312-85dd598a0902/0Zctdccdrq_CfS8Xqf4J6X8Y.png"}
