On this week’s show we delve into the (not-so-fictional) universe of Cli-Fi, or climate change fiction. We hear from novelists Alice Robinson, and Naomi Oreskes.And later in the program, something that should be relegated to the world of fiction, but unfortunately is all too real. The duck shooting season has started again in Victoria, and so too has the campaign to stop it. We speak with Laurie Levy, long-time activist with the Coalition Against Duck Shooting.Guests: Alice Robinson (author and lecturer in creative writing at NMIT), Naomi Oreskes (author and Professor of the history of science at Harvard University), and Laurie Levy (Campaign Director at Coalition Against Duck Shooting).
