Description

Hosted by Dr. Jacinta Delhaize & Dr. Daniel Cunnama. We are joined by the co-founder of Astronomers for Planet Earth Professor Travis Rector who joins us via Zoom from Alaska!   Travis is a Professor of Astronomy at the University of Alaska and is the Chair of the American Astronomical Society’s (AAS) Sustainability Committee, as well as the Chair of a task force aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of the AAS.   Travis speaks with us about his efforts to teach climate change to students and why it is important for astronomers to do so. Travis shares some tips on how to communicate climate change science better and offers some hope that all is not lost for Earth!   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

The 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast is a project that is publishing one podcast per day, 5 to 10 minutes in duration, for all 365 days of the year. The podcast episodes are written, recorded and produced by people around the world. We are looking for individuals, schools, companies and clubs to provide 5 - 10 minutes of audio for the daily podcast. You can do as few as 1 episode or up to 12 episodes (one per month, subject to our editorial discretion). Our goal is to encourage people to sign up for a particular day (or days) of the year.
