Host, Emily Adams

Welcome to Urban Tumbleweed, a sustainability podcast!

This is Urban Tumbleweed - a podcast about what sustainability really looks like in our everyday lives.

I’m your host, Emily Adams, and I started this podcast to hold myself accountable to continue my sustainability learning, educate others, and build connection. My goal is to meet people where they are and break down sustainability in a way that feels clear, accessible, and real.

At Urban Tumbleweed, we explore the intersections - how sustainability connects to culture, community, equity, and everyday choices. Some weeks, we’ll dive into big-picture topics like climate change or circular economies. Other times, we’ll unpack current events, explore local stories, or sit down with guests who are reimagining what a sustainable future can look like - in ways both big and small.

Sustainability isn’t one-size-fits-all; it’s complex, evolving, and deeply human. It’s about learning as we go, asking better questions, and recognizing that progress looks different for everyone.

Whether you’re just getting curious or already deep in the work, this podcast is here to help you understand, connect, and take action - one conversation at a time.

Available wherever you get your podcasts.
