“I almost felt like I had two personalities, where I had an outward facing personality that pushed the climate narrative. Then I had a lot of internal questions, to the point where in 2020 I read Michael Shellenberger’s book Apocalypse Never when it came out. I was still at my old job hosting a climate series, but I felt I was questioning enough that I wanted to seek that out because the doomsday scenario of climate and the nihilism was really weighing me down. I kind of sought that out for my own mental health, of, like, what else is out there and the questioning, but I think there’s not, I don’t have, like, one moment. It was a lot of questioning. But I was so entrenched in the group think of the group of the climate movement, of being very far on the left, that that switch of sort of, say, I’m no longer a climate activist, took a long time to kind of get out of almost had to do a little bit of a like a deprogramming.” — Lucy Biggers, former climate influencer and current Free Press Head of Social Media

In Episode 536 of District of Conservation, Gabriella interviews Lucy Biggers, head of social media at The Free Press.

Lucy discusses her day-to-day at The Free Press, her evolution, debunking climate talking points, how society treats climate skepticism as heresy, why the world is souring on net-zero climate politics, why environmentalism isn’t at odds with human progress, how to fight climate anxiety, and much more.
