About this episode
<p>We can all feel paralysed by the guilt that we might not be doing enough to combat climate change, but actor, director, and environmental activist Bonnie Wright feels we should celebrate imperfect and in-process actions. A little can go a long way.</p><br><p>In this chat with Fearne, Bonnie explains why it might be helpful to stop thinking about how we can make ourselves and our impact on the planet smaller, and instead think about how to make our positive impact even bigger. They also talk about how to find the best place to start making that impact in your own life, by concentrating on an area you’re already interested in like cooking, gardening, cleaning, or technology.</p><br><p>Bonnie’s book, Go Gently: Actionable Steps To Nurture You And The Planet, is out now.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
