Sustainably Geeky is a podcast for the everyday environmentalist! The show features a group of average people with one thing in common: a healthy respect for the environment, and a desire to live a more sustainable lifestyle. Each episode we’ll tackle a new subject and will feature guests occasionally to help us go in depth on some of our more complex topics. Whether you’re a hardcore treehugger or have a mild curiosity about the environment, we hope you’ll learn something! Feel free to share your green life hacks and ideas for future shows.
Sports have a huge personal and cultural impact for people all around the world, bringing communities together and offering unique social experiences. They also have a sizeable impact on the environment. So how do we balance the personal fulfilment and social connection that sports provide with the need for a healthy planet? Claire Poole from Sport Positive joins to discuss this tension, and how the industry is working to reduce its carbon footprint. She also shares examples for how the changing climate is affecting sports, and how the industry is adapting to this new reality. Resources discussed in this episode:
