In this episode of the Carbon Copy Podcast Running Out of Time special, the climate relay reaches the Scottish capital, Edinburgh. We meet legendary ultrarunner Jasmin Paris, as well as fellow Green Runner and Running Out of Time superstar Kenny Alexander. We chat sustainable transport with Cllr. Scott Arthur from Edinburgh City Council, and hear some of the highlights from the first weekend of the event from relay support crew members, Harry and Roisin.
“In terms of speaking out, the climate relay was right up our street... getting involved and really spreading the message about the need for faster and more effective action in the face of the climate crisis, and calling on world leaders to take action. I think it's a fantastic way of involving people all the way across Britain, and when I've taken part, it's been really positive: with the involvement of schoolchildren and local people in all the places that you're passing through. It's really a positive way of speaking out about our concerns and regarding the climate crisis.”
Jasmin Paris, Ultrarunner and founding member of The Green Runners.
