Everybody in the Pool

E93: Rev Yearwood on telling climate stories to everyone


Listen Later

This week on Everybody in the Pool, we’re sticking with the theme of climate storytelling and climate communication with a well-known activist and advocate for justice, climate action, equity, and getting out the vote. Rev Yearwood is the president of the nonprofit Hip Hop Caucus, which works to engage young people around voting and community service, and he also advises the Bloomberg Foundation on climate storytelling projects. He and Molly talk about putting the climate crisis in a language everyone can understand, why there aren’t any hip hop songs about climate change (yet?), and how Earth is like a spouse we need to stop taking for granted.
