episode Exploring Eco Grief artwork

Exploring Eco Grief

For our first official episode back, we're exploring the complexities of eco grief. We spoke with students on the Mount Royal University (MRU) campus and learned what they knew (or didn't know) about eco grief. Later, we sat down with Amy Spark, a Program Specialist at the Alberta Ecotrust Foundation, and showed her our student's responses to learn more about navigating eco grief in a busy, often overwhelming world. So get cosy, grab a blanket, and settle in!

Spot On is back!

Welcome back to Spot On Sustainability, where we put Calgary’s best and brightest sustainability ideas on your radar. Last season, we dove into a plethora of topics, from fast fashion, waste that's often overlooked, and sustainable swaps. We are thrilled to be back for season two, where we hope to uncover more sustainability efforts in YYC. We can't wait to show you what's in store and what developments we discover on our journey to a sustainable community. In every episode, we’ll take you inside Calgary’s universities and labs to hear from students, professors, and innovators who are changing the way we live - through science, ideas, and fresh perspectives.
