Coffee & Geography

A powerful culmination of our 23-episode journey with Climate Ambassadors! In this season finale, host Kit Marie Rackley weaves together profound insights from engineers, teachers, nuclear consultants, and soil scientists volunteering nationwide. Discover how these diverse experts are transforming climate anxiety into agency through six radical lessons: from starting small ("micro-wins build macro-change") to reframing clean energy as an "upgrade," and why soil health could resolve 30% of emissions. Hear directly from voices like nuclear safety engineer Jonathan Allen dismantling energy myths, marine biologist Ray Butchart's "small cog theory," and Environment Agency expert Amy Shaw's urgent Fens warning: "Compounding impacts at 2°C will hit by 2040-2050... We need to start thinking now." This episode proves climate action isn't a curriculum unit – it's a culture of pragmatic hope.

Join Kit Marie at the Denver Complex in the East Anglian Fens—one of the UK’s largest tidal and fluvial management systems, second only to the Thames Barrier yet hidden in plain sight. In this special field episode, Environment Agency experts Louise Wilson (Strategy Advisor, Fens 2100+) and Amy Shaw (Fens Flood Risk Manager & Fens 2100+ Programme Director), alongside Katie Teesdale-Ward (Stakeholder Engagement Manager for Future Fens: Integrated Adaptation, based at Anglian Water), reveal how this 24/7 operational marvel sustains an area of almost half a million hectares; protects infrastructure, people, property and agriculture to the tune of £58bn; and redirects water almost 100 miles into south Essex, against gravity’s pull. We explore: 🔗 Why this 400-year-old plus engineered landscape is a national lifeline, guarding against sea-level rise and water shortages while feeding the UK. ⛈️ The "perfect storm" of climate threats: By 2040, a 2°C temperature rise could trigger compounding floods, droughts, and ecological collapse. 🤝 How the Fens 2100+ partnership pioneers adaptation—balancing farming, biodiversity, and community resilience. 🎓Why educators of all sorts, not just Geographers, must spotlight this hidden hero: "Without Denver, Cambridge would be underwater."

A season-long special interviewing #ClimateAmbassadors across the UK! Why did they become Ambassadors? How do their unique backgrounds empower climate action? Joining Kit Marie from the Yorkshire & Humberside region is Ray Butchart, a retired RAF aircraft engineer (22 years) and industry veteran (31 years) with 58 years of scuba diving expertise.

A season-long special of the podcast interviewing #ClimateAmbassadors up and down the country! Why did they become Ambassadors? How can they help communities and education settings to take climate action? Joining Kit Marie based in the East of England is Willem Buttinger, a retired community organiser and passionate environmental advocate.
