Welcome back! As we enter a decisive few months for climate commitments (hello, COP26!), we’ll be bringing you a brand new collection of impactful conversations with climate/music change-makers.

Here, your co-hosts Fay Milton (musician and activist, Music Declares Emergency + Savages) and Greg Cochrane (journalist and podcaster) preview the topics and the guests you can expect to hear from in the coming podcasts.

We’ll also be looking back on some significant climate and music headlines from the past few months, and look ahead to what to expect from the vital, forthcoming few months of climate action. As ever, we’ll also leave you with some recommendations [scroll down for more].
