A wave of climate action is building across the UK as organisations, researchers, environmental groups and businesses join forces with local councils to tackle the climate crisis where they live. This monthly series will share stories from a research project helping to power that wave by putting climate policy into action on the ground – the Place-based Climate Action Network (PCAN).

  • From global negotiations to local action | Jamie Brogan, Simon Moore and Rosanna Harvey-Crawford
    2022/01/10
    In episode six, two special guest hosts report back from COP26 in Glasgow. Jamie Brogan, from Edinburgh Climate Change Institute and Simon Moore, from the University of Leeds, talk to a variety of delegates about the relationship between global negotiations and local level climate action. Gill Rodrigues from the International SeaKeepers Society explains how global pledges help encourage individuals to take action in their own lives. Glasgow resident Alex Horsburgh gives a local’s perspective, arguing that Glaswegian residents are more open to change than most politicians. Activists Annwen Thurlow and Daisy Earl discuss the power of local communities to create change, and the importance of centring people in global climate talks. Actor and musician Keith Bartlett tells his story of co-writing the Mothership Earth Song – a plea from Mother Earth for governments to combat climate change. We hear six different versions of the song, which has now been translated and performed in 25 different languages by female vocalists from around the world. Bobby Holdbrook from Advanced Bacterial Sciences gives his perspective on the role small businesses can play in the transition to a green economy. Tracy Irvine from Oasis Hub describes how communities working to protect themselves from flooding can set an example that can be scaled up nationally and across continents. David Richardson discusses a film he’s working on about what he sees as a key issue in the climate crisis, overpopulation. And finally, Simon wraps up the episode alongside PCAN Associate Rosanna Harvey-Crawford, discussing the ups and downs of their experiences at COP26.
