#79: Paul Ready & Parisa Wright - eco-anxiety, a parent's view

The Parent Equation - with Ayesha Murray

What if becoming a parent could change how we view the climate crisis and motivate us to take meaningful action? Join me and my co-host Parisa Wright, along with our special guest, actor and parent Paul Ready, as we tackle eco-anxiety head-on, discussing the overwhelming emotions that can arise when confronting this important issue. From the 2018 school climate strikes to the everyday challenges we face as individuals and parents, we share our stories and struggles with trying to make a difference for the environment.
Embarking on a journey towards a more sustainable lifestyle can be daunting, but don't worry - we've got you covered! Together, we'll explore practical steps you can take to reduce your carbon footprint and influence those around you. Learn how simple changes like reducing meat consumption, supporting local farms, and using public transport can make a significant impact. We're not perfect, but we're committed to doing our part, and we'll share our experiences along the way.
Community-led environmental action is a powerful force for change, and we'll discuss how you can make a difference in your own circles of influence. From setting up green teams in schools to engaging communities through theatre and storytelling, we explore the power of conversation in normalising sustainable lifestyle changes. Tune in as we examine how you can use your unique skills to create an impact on the world around you, and how talking about the climate crisis can create a ripple effect, inspiring others to take action too.
