Occasionally we here at Planet Philadelphia collaborate with other partners to bring you interesting projects or additional material we'd like to share with you. A Deeper Dive page is where you’d go to find the sorts of projects, additional documentation, or articles that look more deeply into what's going on with our environment.
To start off, why not check out Socially Just Climate Futures in Philadelphia. 17 undergraduate students at Temple University created four podcasts about local climate impacts and climate communication through conversations and connections with organizations and residents in Philadelphia and to share their podcasts with the greater Philadelphia community. This project was funded by the Climate and Urban Systems Partnership mini-grant competition, run by the Franklin Institute.

Linda and I talked about this story on today’s Planet Philadelphia show. We saw it on BBC News and we both just loved the concept of Robert Bezeau creating the world’s first plastic bottle castle.
