A season-long special of the podcast interviewing #ClimateAmbassadors up and down the country! Why did they become Ambassadors? How can they help communities and education settings to take climate action?

Joining Kit Marie based in the East of England is Thulsi Prabakaran, discussing her journey as a relatively new Climate Ambassador, the importance of sustainability in higher education, and the impact of remote working on carbon footprints and the potential and necessity for Geography in school to be positive and solutions-based.

Thulsi is a passionate sustainability professional working with the University of Leicester's sustainability team. She engages the staff and student community with the university's sustainability ambitions, actions, and the impact we can all make in our daily lives.
