The Simply Vegan podcast is your weekly dose of plant-based food, news and topical chat with Vegan Food & Living's Holly Johnson and Molly Pickering.

In today's episode, Holly is joined by World Triathlon Champion, cycling World Record Holder and performance coach Kate Strong, as she nears the end of her 3,000 mile Climate Cycle around the UK. The challenge is designed to raise awareness of the amazing climate action taking place, from small, individual enterprises to large-scale projects and show us that there is cause for hope!

Find out how Kate has battled wind, rain and mental and physical fatigue, discover where she found the strength to keep going and hear about some of the highlights of her epic trip. We cover microplastics, water-saving hacks, planting trees and insect farming. Holly and Kate also discuss coming together with non-vegans to share ideas for reducing our impact, whether we eat meat or not.

If you're feeling down-beat about climate change, Kate's positive action will inspire you to make a difference too.
