S3, E5: How to get cancelled

Sometimes we have to remind ourselves who or what the true enemy is…

In the fifth episode of season 3, Confessions of a Climate Activist, Clover chats with Sophia Kianni to explore how cancel culture impedes activism and how to redirect our energies to keep pressure on institutions with power.

Stay tuned to the end of the episode to hear Sophia spill her climate confession.

In Season 2 of the Force of Nature podcast, 22-year-old activist Clover Hogan dives deep into the rise of eco-anxiety. Each episode in this 12-part series explores a different face of the climate crisis, through the lens of our mental health: from the food we eat, to our relationship with media, and our addiction to fossil fuels.
