Climate Conversations Editorial Meeting II (10/23)
Agenda Items:
- 1. New music options #2
- 7 principles of climate justice…
- Season II style, themes, etc.
- 4. Zak Accuardi interview
- 5. Timothy Gay’s students over xmas? – sometime in January when the kids are back from Xmas break
Strategy:
- What is the overall thing we are creating? No longer just one podcast at a time where there’s no overarching theme – what’s a season?
- Could we put together a syllabus for Season 2? Here’s our season, may not flesh out every topic, here’s how we’re going to cover it – one podcast, a couple of write-ups, and a resource list – more synchronization between podcasts and other content objects – synchronizing writing to podcasts
- Who do we have lined up for Season 2 so far, what they can offer so far as themes, topics, etc. – topics that Curt would like to see discreetly/explicitly represented during Season 2: indigenous, gender, legacy of colonialism/neoliberalism
- Mary Robinson foundation: 7 Principles of Climate Justice – how do you see them influencing the work? Kind of a completeness check – how do operationalize them? Part of the framing, but doesn’t cover everything
- How do we tell a story that people really want to hear and read and watch?
- How do we consider the things that are already lined up - already have 7 people lined up
- How pure do we want to be with Season 2 as being Climate Justice?
- Season 2 and Climate Justice aren’t necessarily identical – Francis and John published as Climate Summit; what do we do with one-off interviews? But, we want to be fairly pure with Climate Justice; à
- Season 2 = Climate Justice ; people who don’t fit, we have slots for it (Climate Summit, Bonus Episodes) -> let’s not go after it, but if someone really comes up then we shouldn’t turn them down
- So, essentially: 15 sub-topics – this is this week’s Climate Justice theme/topic
- Notion of releasing all topic points at once – perhaps would be more valuable to release each topic-point on a weekly basis
- Climate Justice Season 2 Package: start off with releasing one at a time each week, come up with a way to package it in the end and find a way to really push it out – story will likely change as interviews happen
- Curt’s Season 2 prospectus –
- Geoffrey (science and justice? / broad Justice; capitalism) type thing – MIT Injustice
- Nick O. – (kind of fit them in)
- Mike Wilson (kind of fit them in)
- Zak (transportation)
- Trish (ethics)
- Lisa (environmental justice)
- Nick Mullins (jobs)
Youth – Timothy Gay
Indigenous – global slant or keep it somewhat local
Gender -
