Episode 233: Animals and the climate crisis with Richard Twine

This episode features a returning guest: someone who first appeared on Knowing Animals nearly nine years ago, in February 2016. Dr Richard Twine is a Reader in Sociology at Edge Hill University in the UK. He'll be well-known to lots of regular listeners of this podcast for the work he's done championing the discipline of critical animal studies. His books include 2010's Animals as Biotechnology , which I've seen described as the first book entirely devoted to critical animal studies, and the 2014 collection The Rise of Critical Animal Studies , co-edited with Nik Taylor. On this episode, however, we talk about his 2024 Sydney University Press book The Climate Crisis and Other Animals , published as part of the Animal Politics book series. We're particularly pleased to feature this book as the Animal Politics series at Sydney University Press is a sponsor of this podcast.
