Brian Kahn of Earther: Climate Change Reporting on a Dying Planet

The Arts of Travel

We spoke to Brian Kahn the managing editor of Earther for a frank and (at times) spiritual discussion on what it's like to do climate change reporting on a dying planet.

Brian and I discuss his publication Earther, my own critiques with the data/policy/'nerd' focus of modern climate change reporting, and if there is more room for the spiritual or empathetic in discussing the anthropocene and the daily necropolitics of climate change.

It's a raw and honest discussion that I've left mostly unedited. I hope you enjoy our chat.
