Talk Summary: In 2013 I started my PhD with the best of intentions, yet after graduation found myself as a full-time science communicator. As the years went on I became more and more known online for covering the climate crisis as a recovering scientist. In this talk I’ll cover quite how I fell upwards into this position, how I think about the climate crisis, and how I try to make people care about it.
