Our latest podcast episode takes you inside the Sydney Environment Institute’s event “How to Weather Together: Feminist Practice for Climate Change.”

Dr Astrida Neimanis and Dr Jennifer Hamilton invite us to rethink what it means to “weather” climate change. Weather is not just heatwaves, storms, or floods;, it is also the social and political conditions that shape our lives. Drawing on their decade-long collaboration and the forthcoming book How to Weather Together: Feminist Practice for Climate Change (Bloomsbury, Feburary 2026), Neimanis and Hamilton explore weathering as both a theoretical framework and a set of practical tools for responding to environmental catastrophe.

In this episode, you’ll hear how weathering connects the planetary to the personal, asking: How can we reckon with existential crisis through creative, low-tech practices? How can feminist, anticolonial, and antiracist approaches help us build solidarity and resilience in the face of climate change?

The discussion moves beyond meteorology to consider “social weather,” the structural disadvantages that accumulate in bodies and communities and how these intersect with environmental crises. The conversation is about imagination, language, and community. It’s about cultivating a slow politics of solidarity and resistance and learning how to weather together as a response to climate change.
