Damien Cave (pictured) came to Sydney four years ago to set up a news bureau for The New York Times, the first it has had in Australia since the Second World War.

Damien talks about the coverage of the climate crisis in Australia, how his new home is something of a "canary in the coalmine" for climate change, the challenges of dealing with what is the most secretive democracy in the developed world and how his newspaper will take its "Climate Hub" to Glasgow in November.

Since arriving in Australia with his young family, Damien has discovered much about the local attitude to risk and the "stark differences" between what he has experienced here and the culture of his American home.

The differences were so great that he wrote about in his just-published book: "Into the Rip: How the Australian Way of Risk Made My Family Stronger, Happier ... and Less American".

Kim Cobb (pictured) has what she sees as the best place in the world to work - she explores and researches our coral reefs, but her actual office is in the Kendeda Building at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, America.

Should you ever get to Georgia Tech and visit the Kendeda Building you'll discover the Kim Cobb Research Lab.

My first contact with Dr Cobb was at a TEDx event, "Greening the Built Environment", and then, after being approached, was kind and generous enough to have this chat with Climate Conversations.

The generosity of people eager to help others understand the rigour and complications of the climate crisis amazes me, endlessly.
