Today is the one year anniversary of The Climate Conscious Podcast. We partnered with the Sargassum Podcast to amplify the voices of those affected by the eruption of the La Soufriere volcano in St. Vincent. La Soufriere volcano first erupted on April 09, 2021.
Hosts: Derval Barzey (The Climate Conscious Podcast), Franziska Elmer and Robby Thigpen (Sargassum Podcast) interviewed Melissa de Freitas, Maxine Trotman and Tessa Davy. Melissa is a Geophysicist working as Energy Officer at the Energy Unit of the Government of St. Vicent. Maxine currently lives in Atlanta Georgia and organizes relief effort from there and Tessa is a retired healthcare professional and is currently on St. Vincent for her tourism related work. Melissa and Tessa share their experience of the volcanic eruptions. Maxine shares her work mobilizing relief for st. Vincent.
We encourage you to use the channels accessible to you to support the recovery efforts for St. Vincent.
