Phil Emonson

What does climate resilience really mean when the land beneath you is being washed away?

In this riveting episode of the Climate Resilience Podcast, host Phil Emonson is joined by one of the UK’s most influential voices in ethical agriculture — Guy Singh-Watson, founder and CEO of Riverford Organic Farmers. Sharing raw insights from the field - from soil loss and water stress to the power of collaboration and honest storytelling - Guy and Phil explore the realities of farming in a changing climate - and what true resilience looks like beyond the buzzwords.

Tune in as we explore:

  • The cost of climate unpredictability on real farms
  • How cooperation — not competition — can drive true resilience
  • And the critical role of trust and transparency in the food system

A must-listen for anyone passionate about food, farming, and the future of our landscapes.
