Planet Philadelphia
Environmental radio show

WGGT-LP 92.9 FM in NW Philadelphia & gtownradio.com
4-5:00 PM ET, the 1st & 3rd Fridays/month.

Socially Just Climate Futures in Philadelphia

7/27/2018

 

Tune in to Planet Philadelphia 4-5 pm Friday 8/3/18 4-5 pm at 92.9 low power FM Germantown Community Radio and WGGT-LP and/or streaming at gtownradio.com.
As the planet warms there will be several large challenges we as a society need to address. Most of these challenges will hit our youth the hardest. This Planet Philadelphia features podcasts by  Temple University students about the climate change adaptation process and its implications for equity and social justice.


Seventeen undergraduate students at Temple University enrolled in the “Geography of Hazards” course offered by the Geography and Urban Studies Department produced these podcasts. Dr. Hamil Pearsall, a professor in the Geography and Urban Studies Department at Temple, supervised. The students worked in groups of four to five to create the episodes, and each group partnered with a local organization or agency: Philadelphia Horticultural Society, Temple University Office of Sustainability, Philadelphia Department of Public Health. Kay Wood, from Planet Philadelphia, and Richard Johnson, CUSP (Climate and Urban Systems Partnership) Project Manager, provided guidance on science communication. The Franklin Institute provided funding through its CUSP project competition.

It's tooo hot

7/27/2018

People often ask me where I got the globe for the Planet Philadelphia  logo. The answer is that I drew it. I wrote and drew The Big Belch environmental graphic novel a couple years back and I came up with the globe for it. The reason I bring this up now is that I'm mid way through my second environmental graphic novel in the series.  I hope to get a lot done on it in August.

Stay cool this summer,
Kay Wood


Here's what one reviewer said about The Big Belch:
"Irreverent and hilarious, The Big Belch is a graphic novel you won’t be able to put down. Replete with quirky characters and mad-cap adventures, this book reveals the power of individual citizens against corporate greed and greenwashing. Yes, there’s a critical environmental message, but it’s embedded in humor rather than heaviness. This is the kind of storytelling we need right now: the kind that pulls you in by the funny bone."   ~   Marybeth Holleman, author of The Heart of the Sound
