Welcome back to the Joy Report, a podcast by Intersectional Environmentalist dedicated to sharing stories about climate solutions and environmental justice grounded in intersectionality and optimism!
This podcast is a labor of love that we see as an extension of the work IE does to make environmentalism accessible by amplifying the stories and contributions of historically under-recognized individuals and communities. We aim to help combat climate doom by sharing some of the multitude of solutions already in the works to combat the climate crisis, and ways you can do your part to protect people and the planet.
I’m your host, Arielle V. King— an environmental justice strategist and educator— and I am so excited to share that after a bit of a hiatus, season two is coming your way soon!
I also want to take a moment to thank everyone who listened to the first season. Thanks to you, our positive climate stories and insights amassed over 33,000 streams and had listeners in 66 countries, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
In this upcoming season, we’ll be exploring a wide range of topics— from conscious consumption and microplastics to funding for climate justice— while featuring success stories that can help us turn our feelings of climate doom and despair into climate optimism.
The first five episodes of this second season of The Joy Report are being brought to you in partnership with our friends at KEEN, a family-owned, values-led shoemaking company on a journey to make the world’s cleanest shoes.
In addition to sharing stories about innovative climate solutions that are already underway, every episode will include tangible steps we can take as individuals to support the topic discussed, additional positive climate news you should know about, and updates from the Intersectional Environmental ecosystem.
