This week I am joined by climate journalist Sonali Prasad to talk about the media representations of climate change. How do the evolving attention spans of audiences impact the way in which news is consumed? How effective are fear-mongering, neutrality, objectivity etc in conveying the urgency of the issue? Sonali Prasad is a journalist and storyteller using different platforms such as video, data, text, audio, art and installations. An MIT Knight Science Fellow she and I talk about whether storytelling can be ‘sustainable’ and how we get there. Edit: between 68.30-68.35 the Kantō earthquake that Sonali is referring to occurred on September 1, 1923.
