Sounds Like A Plan

'Grassroots' – with guest KAM-BU, musician and conservationist

Listen on

Episode notes

We're talking local action on this week's episode. Our guest KAM-BU isn't just one of the UK's best new MCs, he's also a keen conservationist. The 24-year-old south London musician has been doing his bit for the local community, the environment and his own wellbeing by volunteering with The Conservation Volunteers – they spend time bringing people together to nurture neighbourhood green spaces, before handing their caretakership over to their newly established communities. Plus, he talks about how nature and sustainability makes its way into his art – and growing tomatoes at home.

Hosts Fay Milton and Greg Cochrane discuss the balance between everyday, personal actions and the wider climate crisis and also leave you with some recommendations.
