          From climate sceptic to climate campaigner, Sarah Ott grew up in the US surrounded by doubters, listening to out-right deniers. This is the story of what changed her mind. 
We also hear people’s questions about climate change from Kenya where there’s major drought and we speak to BBC Disinformation reporter Marco Silva on dealing with climate misinformation.  
Presenter Neal Razzell is joined by: 
Sarah Ott, teacher and former sceptic 
Marco Silva, BBC Climate Disinformation Reporter  
Michael Kaloki, journalist in Kenya 
With thanks also to Sander van der Linden, Professor of Social Psychology at the University of Cambridge, UK
