Welcome to episode 4 from the SDG Agency SZ Podcast Channel.

On today's show we speak to Chris Mc Kenzie, a recent arrival in August to Shen Wai International School in Shenzhen China . Chris is a proud non-rugby loving Kiwi and is a G5 teacher here. He is a passionate advocate of all issues surrounding Climate Change.

Chris is really doing his bit as part of the Sustainable Development Goal 13 which is to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts through the setting up of our very own weather station here at SWIS. You can access the SWIS Weather station here. His after school activity aptly entitled 'Climate Club' builds on his passion for this topic and it is fair to say that Chris is going above and beyond to help achieve target 13.3 of the SDG by improving education and raising awareness on climate change. 

This is a really fascinating podcast with Chris’ passion about the issue clearly evident, yet it starts in a very poignant manner when I discover for the first time the actual roots of this passion was born during a period of obvious difficultly for Chris when he was being bullied as a child at school.  This completely caught me off guard and I was not prepared for it and is a topic and conversation that we will revisit with Chris at a later date as we were under serious time constraints to actually complete the podcast that we had initially planned.

We hope you enjoy the podcast and you can find us on the anchor platform by searching for SDG AGENCY or by going to anchor.fm/sdgagency
