The Interview!
We’re starting the show off with an interview tonight.
Our guest is Dr. Clare Fieseler, a scientist and journalist whose work focuses on people coping with a changing ocean and a warming world. Clare is a recipient of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Award for Excellence in Science Communications, is a National Geographic explorer, and does research through the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. You can find Clare’s work in National Geographic, Vox, Grist, The Washington Post, Politico, and Canary Media. Welcome to the show, Clare.x
Currently, she is covering oceans and offshore wind for Canary Media, a U.S.-based non-profit newsroom. She has been a staff reporter for POLITICO covering the green energy transition. Prior to that, Clare was an investigative reporter covering environmental issues in the South for The Post and Courier (Charleston, S.C.). In this interview Dr. Kiki and Dr. Clare get into the impacts of stopping offshore wind in the US, going to be for our energy economy & infrastructure, the reason President tRump seems so opposed to wind power, and the man who might be behind the fall of off shore wind in the US.
She is a National Geographic Explorer and maintains an unpaid research appointment at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History. She is currently collaborating with museum curator Nick Pyenson on a National Geographic Society-funded project combining research and visual storytelling.
Though they talk a lot about wind there is nothing long-winded about this interesting interview you’ll want to listen to again and again!
