About this listen

We’ve all heard the cries echoing from climate marches: “SYSTEM-CHANGE, NOT CLIMATE CHANGE!”. But what does that actually mean?


This investigative mini-series explores how our society has been built, uncovers the flaws in its foundation, and asks: how might we change things for the better?


Investigative journalism. Talks with world-leading experts. Complex social, historical, and scientific concepts explained simply. At a time when the headlines can seem so alarming and random, The Water We Swim In is here to give you a better understanding of what they really mean.

    "Climate change"....What feeling does it evoke? Boredom? Apathy? Despair?


    In our first episode we explore why our approach to climate change feels stagnant, and how we might fix it.


    Investigating the efficacy of our most trusted mitigation tactics - from conscious consumerism to international treaties - we reveal a problem at the heart of our methods. No more neutral, technological, ‘green’ solutions...it’s time to get political.


    Featured in this episode, you'll find: activist Tolmeia Gregory, economist Simon Mair and lawyer & advisor James Gustave Speth.
