While thinking of what to do I was immediately set on doing a podcast because I thought it would be something I'm good at. At school I'm on the news crew so talking on camera wouldn't be anything new to me. I enjoy using my voice to make a change or to stand up for something so this was the right choice. While in the car I listened to a lot of call-in talk shows to see how they generally flowed. And I hope I did a good job of mimicking that. The first caller shows some of my experiences with climate change since I live in Texas. I wanted to focus specifically on how much everything was warming. In the first caller, the warming affected the storms and in the second caller, it affected their weather. I hope that after listening people will try to think more about how their actions affect the climate. Hopefully, they will use some of the advice I gave them. To try and plant, not drive as much, order less one-day shipping on Amazon and support their local non-profits.
