Has this ever happened to you? You're looking at your phone and it's just page after page of heat waves and hurricanes and droughts, flooding, wildfires, melting bowler ice, deforestation, oil spills, mass extinctions, and the hottest summer on record, And you just have to stop and lie down because all you can think is we've fed Hi. I'm Chris Turney, and if you're plagued by climate induced existential dread, you're not alone. That's why I'm launching Unfoking the Future. It's a show about the climate crisis and what we can do about it. Every episode we'll speak to someone tackling the climate crisis in a clever way, Activists like Maggie Bird, who says that we could change the world if we just change our diet.

It's a single most effective thing you can do personally is change the way you eat.

Right.

If ten thousand people eat just one plant based meal a day for thirty days, that's seven million gallons of water saved.

We'll meet scientists like doctor Lisa Van Sustram, who has said, is climate anxiety, Oh.

It's even desirable, frankly to be outraged and angry. Many studies show that that is the prelude to taking action.

We'll even talk to Bill Neither science guy.

You climate denier. Sorry, science is so settled. It's settled on top is settled.

These people are making a real difference, and we're going to learn from them about how we can make a difference too, because sitting around doom scrolling isn't doing you or the planet any good.

If you go into this thinking we're going to get overwhelmed and lose, then we will tun it out people.

I think the antidote for eco anxiety's action. It gives me hope to you know, if nothing else, We're not in and alone.

We're in the future.
