Saving Planet A

De: Gizem Eren
  • Resumen

  • A podcast for families on sustainability, climate change and jobs that help save the planet.

    In every episode I chat to a planet saver: experts with environmental careers, activists or simply people who put sustainability at the heart of what they do.

    We talk about how they got here and what inspires them to keep going. My aim is to inform and empower young people who want to pursue environmental-related degrees or careers that are connected to even just being a small part of a solution.

  • Rewilding the UK, turning back on consumerism, wealth and inequality - Guest: Julia Davies
    Feb 6 2024
    My guest is the brilliant lawyer turned activist Julia Davies, once described by The Guardian as ''the millionaire rewilding the countryside, one farm at a time''.Julia is a true impact investor, lawyer, philanthropist, and environmental campaigner. She's dedicated to catalyzing action to tackle the climate and environmental crises and interconnected social issues. She does this under the banner of environmental fund We have the POWER, with power standing for ''Protect Our World, Educate, Restore''. Julia's philanthropy is focused on taking urgent action to tackle the multiple crises we face. It includes funding climate litigation and using philanthropic loans to catalyze acquisition of land for nature restoration by charities such as the Wildlife Trusts. Julia has a particular mission to turn down the tap on new and set up the reuse collective for that reason. It's a collective of young and innovative businesses focused on making single use waste and overproduction of new goods a thing of the past and helping the shift to a circular economy. She's also a member of Patriotic Millionaires UK, a network of British millionaires campaigning for tax on high level wealth.Tune in to be inspired!Useful Links:An interview with Julia in the GuardianGuardian Opinion by JuliaDoughnut Economics Action LabThe Spirit Level by Richard G.

  • Freediving, reclaiming the ocean, plastic pollution and wise grandmothers - Guest: Zandile Ndhlovu
    Jun 20 2023

    Who is the ocean for? If we find home in the ocean, will we be able to better protect it?


    Meet the real-life Ariel, ‘’The Black Mermaid’’ Zandile Ndhlovu, who is changing the perception of the ocean in her Cape Town community since 2016, when she fell in love with freediving.


    Zandi is South Africa's first black female free diving instructor and the founder of the Black Mermaid Foundation, an organization seeking to create diverse representation in the ocean spaces. Her work centers around enabling access to ocean spaces to local ocean facing communities.


    She hopes to diversify ocean spaces recreationally, professionally and in sport while creating a new generation of ocean guardians. As a diversity and inclusion consultant, she has contributed to global topics that include ocean conservation, climate change, coastal justice and capacitating the youth to participate in the Blue Economy.


    In partnership with WaterBear, she’s released a documentary which seeks to encourage people of colour to consume more content that pushes them to get involved with reclaiming the ocean and, ultimately, protecting it.


    Tune in as we talk reclaiming the ocean, plastic pollution, wise grandmothers and more.
