Sustainability Now! | Danica Novgorodoff | Global Youth Confront the Climate Crisis | 5-18-26

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, talks about art and activism with Danica Novgorodoff, a New York Times best-selling illustrator with a new graphic novel out called “A Better World is Possible: Global Youth Confront the Climate Crisis." In the book, Danica and award-winning environmental journalist Meera Subramanian share experiences from their lives and the lives of the four youth activists who’ve witnessed climate change up close—from wildfires in the Pacific Northwest to floods in Bangladesh. Woven through the stories are deeply researched and fact-checked interludes that explore climate science, environmental justice, biodiversity, and more, along with— of course—solutions! They show us anyone can make meaningful change, because a better world is possible—and together, we can create it.
