As part of Essex Book Festival 2023 young people were invited to take part in a 2 day podcast workshop with Chelmsford Community Radio to develop our Eco-casts.
Looking at the 70th Anniversary of the East Coast Floods and reflecting on the climate crisis they learnt how to research and write content, undertake interviews and join them all together to make an impactful podcast.
With the opportunity to interview environmental activists, environmental science experts and climate advocates they discussed the importance of connecting with nature, careers in environmental science and the challenge for businesses in becoming more eco-friendly.
