About the Climate Classroom

A short, independent podcast exploring climate change clearly, calmly and without jargon.

The Climate Classroom is a short weekly podcast exploring climate change clearly, calmly, and without jargon. Each episode takes one small part of the climate story — what the evidence shows, how we know it, and what people are asking—and makes it accessible for families, schools, and listeners of any age.

Episodes draw on the long tradition of scientific enquiry and are grounded in authoritative, peer-reviewed evidence, with sources clearly cited. The aim is not to persuade or campaign, but explore climate change as a scientific and social issue.

Galileo's thermoscope and the early tools of enquiry – the roots of modern climate science.

All episodes are freely shared, because knowing how the climate works should be a public good. Designed for the school run or the classroom, the podcast is made so adults and young people can listen together – and talk about what they’ve heard.
