Speaking Municipally

Chris Chang-Yen Phillips investigates a reader's question about the connections between our responses to COVID-19 and the climate crisis, as part of Taproot's contribution to Covering Climate Now.

Show Notes

A Taproot reader submitted a question to the COVID-19 in Edmonton site asking whether people were thinking about the pandemic response in relation to the climate crisis.

This seemed like a job for Chris Chang-Yen Phillips of Let's Find Out, and he obliged, gathering three perspectives on this question in audio form. Now his story is easily accessible to listeners of Speaking Municipally.

For more on Chris's interviewees — Miranda Lucas, Shelley Boulianne, and Chad Park — see the full story on Taproot Edmonton.

This story is part of Covering Climate Now's week of coverage focused on Climate Solutions, to mark the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. Covering Climate Now is a global journalism collaboration committed to strengthening coverage of the climate story.
