Create Your Own Series“We still have time to minimize harm, save millions of lives, and keep our planet livable, while improving the underlying structures that created this mess in the first place.” – Baratunde Thurston
Bestselling writer and commentator Baratunde Thurston tells stories of interdependence through our relationship with nature, each other and technology. He is the Emmy-nominated host of PBS’ America Outdoors, featured host of Hope in the Water (also on PBS), author of the bestselling book How to Be Black and creator of the How to Citizen and Life with Machines podcasts. Renowned for his ability to synthesize themes of race, culture, politics and technology with intelligence, compassion and humor, Thurston will explore opportunities for climate-concerned individuals to take meaningful community-driven action.
