Episode Description
Today, Tash is back with part two of our conversation with Lacey Filipich, turning the focus to what we can actually do about climate risk.
Lacey explains why relying on fossil fuel companies to change is unlikely, and why removing financial support can be far more effective. We talk through how to check where your money is invested and why avoiding a small group of major producers can make a real difference.
She also shares the one action you can take that has a much bigger impact than most lifestyle changes, even though it is rarely talked about.
Once you know what to look for, taking action can be surprisingly quick and far less overwhelming than it sounds!
