🧟‍♂️ The Zombie Apocalypse and the Sustainable Development Goals - part 1 🧟‍♀️

from Meliora: a podcast from the Sustainability & Resilience Institute · host University of Southampton

We know you often ask ‘if there’s a Zombie Apocalypse, how on Earth will we achieve the Sustainable Development Goals?’. So, we have recorded a special double 🧟‍♂️ episode addressing this very question! The brilliant Jack Dinham (UG, Meliora producer & editor) and I discuss our nerdy love for dystopian Sci-fi and fantasy, explore the sustainability metaphors surrounding zombie culture, and determine whether a zombie apocalypse would be net positive or negative for the SDGs, or perhaps the World’s End 🌍. We even have a scoring system with the results in episode 2. Jack’s research for this episode is amazing!We hope you enjoy this light-hearted, popular-culture focused, off-beat and alternative entry point for addressing the SDGs, which is all for The Greater Good 🦢Just in case you don’t, Jack and I are off to The Winchester, to have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over……. 🧟‍♀️🍺🧟‍♂️Episode zombies: Jack Dinham and Simon KempProducer & Editor: Jack DinhamThis episode is for Lily Killner and Sophie Green
