“Infinitely Curious“, the English-language program of Voice of Greece, poses a question that concerns us all: How can we adapt to extreme heat before it’s too late?
As temperatures soar and summers become increasingly longer and harsher, who gets access to cool environments — and who doesn’t?
From Athens to Bangladesh, from Nairobi to the Netherlands, journalist Katerina Batzaki takes us on a powerful radio journey across the frontlines of climate adaptation and environmental justice.
Featuring exclusive interviews and valuable insights, this episode brings together:
– Eleni Myrivili, Chief Heat Officer for the City of Athens and senior advisor to the UN on urban resilience, who explains why cities must treat heat as a state of emergency.
– Professor Lorraine Whitmarsh, an expert in environmental psychology, who discusses the rising burden of “eco-anxiety.”
– Professor Joyeeta Gupta, UN advisor, who explores how access to cool environments is becoming a new marker of social inequality.
Voices from Kenya, India, Mexico, and beyond — stories of local adaptation and quiet revolutions that inspire hope… Because survival should not depend on our postcode.
