She originated the “climate Venn diagram”/“climate side hustle” concept.

  • How To Save A Planet podcast: “Climate change. We know. It can feel too overwhelming. But what if there was a show about climate change that left you feeling…energized? One so filled with possibility that you actually wanted to listen? Join us, journalist Alex Blumberg and a crew of climate nerds, as we bring you smart, inspiring stories about the mess we're in and how we can get ourselves out of it.”
