SAGES Climate Science Podcast: Ep. 3 - Snow and Ice

Description

Emma Cameron and TJ Young featured in the Scottish Alliance for Geoscience, Environment and Society (SAGES)' 11-part Climate Science podcast, funded by the Scottish Government’s Climate Engagement Fund. Over the course of an hour, TJ and Emma, along with Ailsa Guild (University of Dundee) and Laura Young (SAGES Digital Science Communications Intern) covered topics ranging from why the cryosphere matters for climate change, how cryospheric research investigates the past/present/future of glaciers and ice sheets, and how this impacts Scotland as well as the rest of the world. Other GSD faculty, including Lydia Cole, Bill Austin, and Mary Abed al Ahad, will also feature in subsequent episodes in the series, and our school is well-represented in the initiative. The podcast episodes were recorded in Glasgow at the Podcast Studio in October 2024, and was released on 21 January 2025 as part of a public launch event involving fellow podcast contributors, members of government, climate activists, and other influential members of the public.
