Talking about climate change is hard. And for those of us who work, live or spend time with young people, it can be especially difficult to work out how to balance the harsh realities of present and future impacts; communicate accurately about what can be done; and respond to the feelings that come up for us and for the kids we care about. On this show, Mia brings you interviews with two climate advocates who are using their talents to help kids and their carers grapple with the climate crisis:Tim Winton is a West Australian author, four-time Miles Franklin award winner, and named a Living Treasure by the National Trust of Australia. His new picture book, ‘Ningaloo: Australia’s Wild Wonder’, captures his love for the Ningaloo reef region; he has campaigned for its protection for over 20 years. Dr Linden Ashcroft is a senior lecture in climate science and science communication at the University of Melbourne. She co-created ‘Climate Kids’, a series of Youtube videos answering kids’ questions about climate change. Climate Superpowers quiz - https://climatesuperpowers.org/  Earth Matters #1528 was produced by Mia Audrey on Wurundjeri Woiwurrung country.
