In the first episode of A Small Acorn, Amy and Nate introduce themselves and talk a bit about why they're starting the podcast: to help kids and their adults find fun and practical ways to address the climate crisis. The main idea for this week is to use energy efficient lighting, particularly LED lighting. To get a really physical idea of how much electricity it takes to light a lightbulb, Amy and Nate experiment with a bicycle that has been rigged to generate electricity. Keep an ear out for this week's joke - it's about fossil fuels.
