In this month's episode of The Health Equity Podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Sofie Roberts, climate researcher and Research Officer at Bangor University. Sofie shares her journey from environmental science to the heart of health economics, exploring how climate mitigation and adaptation strategies, such as tree planting, wildflower meadows, and greener urban spaces. All of which can offer powerful co-benefits for health.
We discuss the public response to green space interventions in North Wales, the concept of “place attachment” in climate engagement, and the importance of working across disciplines to tackle the complex relationship between climate change and public health. Sofie also highlights a European course on Climate Resilient Health Systems and the role of community voice in shaping better environments.
