Our latest podcast episode takes you inside the Sydney Environment Institute鈥檚 event聽鈥淗ow to Weather Together: Feminist Practice for Climate Change.鈥
Dr Astrida聽Neimanis聽and聽Dr Jennifer Hamilton invite us to rethink what it means to 鈥渨eather鈥 climate change. Weather is not just heatwaves, storms, or floods;,聽it is also the social and political conditions that shape our lives. Drawing on their decade-long collaboration and the forthcoming book聽How to Weather Together: Feminist Practice for Climate Change聽(Bloomsbury,聽Feburary聽2026),聽Neimanis聽and Hamilton explore weathering as both a theoretical framework and a set of practical tools for responding to environmental catastrophe.
In this episode,聽you鈥檒l聽hear how weathering connects the planetary to the personal, asking: How can we reckon with existential crisis through creative, low-tech practices? How can feminist, anticolonial, and antiracist approaches help us build solidarity and resilience in the face of climate change?
The discussion moves beyond meteorology to consider 鈥渟ocial weather,鈥 the structural disadvantages that accumulate in bodies and communities and how these intersect with environmental crises. The conversation is about imagination, language, and community.聽It鈥檚聽about聽cultivating a slow politics of solidarity and resistance and learning how to weather together聽as a response to climate change.
