Podcast Series: COP Conversations

COP Conversations is a daily podcast series throughout COP26.

The Planet Pod team will be in Glasgow for this crucial climate summit and were podcasting every day bringing listeners insights, reflections and observations from the conference, and hearing from a wide range of voices. Conversations took place with academics, policy makers, politicians, businesses, artists, not for profits, NGOs and activists.

Our mission is to take the global issues and unpack them at a national and local scale. To get under the skin of COP and seek to understand what is really going on beneath all the public statements and the fanfares.

We are delighted to be working with our partners at University of Strathclyde and The Grantham Institute for Climate Change & the Environment at Imperial College London. Guest podcasters include Dr Chris White, Head of the Centre for Water, Environment, Sustainability and Public Health at the University of Strathclyde and Alyssa Gilbert, Director of Policy and Translation at the Grantham Institute and Director of the COP26 Universities Network.

You can listen to the full podcast series here.
