Being a millennial isn’t easy – our climate is warming, our social lives are being mediated by technology and the internet, and politicians are out of sync with what we want. Contrary to the popular narrative about millennials being entitled snowflakes, we're faced with challenges that previous generations would never have imagined. In Heckin' Concerned, Amruta speaks with smart and sensitive people about topics that scare millennials, and how to find some hope amongst the endless smashed avocado.
Bonus: Climactic Features | Investigating "Inconceivable" with director Jayde Harding
Amruta recently appeared in a short documentary on ABC Australia, called Inconceivable, about people who are worried about having or raising children in the face of climate change. Inconceivable is now available to stream on ABC iView, in Australia.
In this special episode, Amruta and Jayde Harding, the director of the film, join Mark Spencer on Climactic, a podcast about climate change. We chat with Mark about the film, about the deeply personal and difficult topic of reproduction, and about what parenthood means to all three of us.
