Interview: Lesley Hodges, climate poet, trying to turn the tide on climate change, one poem at a time.

from Climate Conversations · host Robert McLean

Lesley Hodges (pictured) worked as an environmental scientist and needed little or no nudging to understand or recognise the quickly evolving dangers arising from the human-caused damage to Earth's atmosphere and the increasingly dangerous weather system. Unsure what to do to help people better understand and identify with the quickly unfolding climate crisis, Lesley settled on storytelling, using poetry and songs as the primary way in which to connect with people. Subsequently, she developed and set up the website, "Climate Poems and Songs" and says, she would love people to take her work and share it.
