Don't Look Away: How Can We Sustain Our Gaze on Climate Issues?

Writers Donna Cameron, Simon Cleary and Dr Anika Molesworth have all addressed environmental issues in their latest works, whether in the form of fiction, auto-biography or a non-fiction genre-mash of memoir, travelogue, history and essay. Join them and moderator/novelist, Jo Riccioni, as they discuss how different genres of writing can 'sustain our gaze' on environmental issues and encourage action and hope in the face of constant climate crisis news, government inaction and the impotence of doom-scrolling.

 

Moderator Jo Riccioni, with Donna Cameron, Simon Cleary and Dr Anika Molesworth
