Whatever the Weather

Communicate is an annual environmental communication conference organised by The Natural History Consortium. It brings together a diverse group of delegates each year to develop skills, share best practice and debate latest issues in science communication, nature conservation and engaging people with the natural world. Weathered Lives was invited to lead a panel discussion as part of the Communicate programme.

The panel discussion was led by Cassandra Phoenix, who was joined by Dr Clifton Evers a gender and cultural studies scholar from Newcastle University with an interest in masculinities, pollution, leisure, and Dr Georgie Sowman a General Practitioner in the North East of England and co-founder of Healthcare Ocean.

The panel session evoked vibrant conversation and connections with people working across the natural environment and science communication sectors. Key areas covered during this discussion were captured as a sketchnote by Grace Elizabeth:
