In this introductory episode, host Kristian Noll speaks with three academics who have been researching the global political narrative surrounding the climate crisis.
Through their conversations, we learn about the evolution of a global narrative on the climate, the role of faith and religious discourses in 'new' ways of thinking about environmental catastrophe, and are introduced to the work of the LSE Religion and Global Society unit developing a methodology for engaging religious communities in climate policy discussions.
