  • Meet the women farmers adapting to climate change, with Alison Ward, Noha Ali, and Samah Salah
    Female small-holder farmers in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh are adapting to climate change using both new and old farming techniques. From intercropping to help balance nitrogen in the soil, to nurturing a composting side hustle for increased agricultural income, women are gaining the knowledge and skills needed to become more resilient to the advances of climate change impacts being felt in their communities. Climate Curious spoke to Alison Ward, the CEO of CottonConnect, and farmers Noha Ali and Samah Salah to learn more about how community-based initiatives can play a vital role in building resilience among women farmers.Join the Climate Curious conversation on socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/climatecuriouspod/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@climatecuriouspodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtF6xzNkVIczlDmVcH8FCMALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/10996041/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TEDxLondonWebsite: https://tedxlondon.com/podcast/All other links: https://linktr.ee/climatecuriouspod Created by TEDxLondonExecutive produced by Josie ColterProduced by Ben BeheshtyCurated by Deesha ChandraHosted by Maryam Pasha and Ben HurstCommunications by Tara Cooper and Issey Gladston Hosted on Acast.

  • The story behind climate’s most powerful movement to date, with Xiye Bastida
    “The youth climate movement was effective at raising attention to levels that it had never been at before,” says Mexican-Chilean climate activist and member of the indigenous Mexican Otomi-Toltec nation, Xiye Bastida, on the Climate Curious podcast. Growing up in Mexico and experiencing a climate disaster for the first time at age 13, Xiye was determined to raise awareness of climate change; but with a difference. Her focus would be on justice for countries already experiencing climate impacts in the Global South, highlighting indigenous and immigrant wisdom. Enter her breakout moment, speaking at a UN conference aged just 15, organising a protest for school-kids in New York City, and setting up a foundation to fund climate solutions in the Global South from young people, The Re-Earth Initiative. Recorded live at TED Countdown 2025 in conversation with co-host Ben Hurst.Watch Xiye’s TED Talk, ‘Your inner fire is your greatest strength’.Check out Xiye’s foundation, The Re-Earth Initiative.Continue the Climate Curious conversation on socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/climatecuriouspod/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@climatecuriouspod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtF6xzNkVIczlDmVcH8FCMA LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/10996041/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TEDxLondon Website: https://tedxlondon.com/podcast/ All other links: https://linktr.ee/climatecuriouspod Created by TEDxLondonExecutive produced by Josie ColterProduced by Ben BeheshtyCurated by Deesha ChandraHosted by Maryam Pasha and Ben HurstCommunications by Tara Cooper and Issey Gladston Hosted on Acast.
