Current Climate - with Sam & April

By Sam Zagorski & April Regan

Join April and Sam each week as they break down current events that impact our environment. From learning about United States policy to trying out small lifestyle changes, they aim to make the overwhelming pursuit of slowing climate change a little more fun.

Come for the climate change discussion, stay for Sam’s commitment to making April try sustainable habits she doesn’t want to try.

Will it be the best podcast you’ve ever heard? Probably not. But will you find it funny and endearing? Also probably not.
