We covered a lot of ground starting the year in India, and ending the year in Uganda. We talked climate, policy, and community work too. It was hard to choose a top 5, but we did it.

We spoke to Mathew Lubari, a repairer from the Rhino Camp Refugee Settlement. Lubari is the founder and a team leader at CC4D, an environmental initiative promoting repair skills.

As 2021 draws to a close, Janet and Ugo reflected on this precarious but successful year. Despite challenges, we have a lot to celebrate.

This month we talked to author and activist, Alice Bell about her recent book, Our Biggest Experiment: An Epic History of the Climate Crisis.

In celebration of Repair Day 2021, we held a webinar Q&A exploring consumption emissions, featuring Professor John Barrett.
