In today's episode, Justin Cook takes us into the evolving world of climate storytelling where he's been a journalist and photographer covering "communities living along the edges in America" for the past several years. Justin's work stands in stark contrast to the conventional climate storytelling landscape that's so often dominated by dire predictions and a sense of impending doom. In today's conversation, hear about how it matters so dearly to weave life, joy, color, humanity, and history into coverage on the communities most affected by the climate crisis.
Homework from Justin: "Just go outside today and enjoy where you are, just slow down a little bit." And, "Go play in a creek somewhere. You might just find a fossil." (You'll just have to listen to the episode for more about that).
