It was an absolute pleasure interviewing Anna Grayson and @Profiainstewart about their careers in broadcasting and science communication.
Geology needs effective sci comm now more than ever, so discussing how approaches have changed over time was fascinating!

Geology intake has been in decline for many years, so I'm hoping events like this will encourage secondary school students to consider geology and see how relevant it is to current issues 🌏
