Representing De Montfort University Leicester (DMU), Kate delivered various presentations under the title of ‘The hidden impact of climate change on communication'. Together, they built awareness of environmental irritants that affect respiration; provided tips for maintaining voice health in a dry climate; introduced conscious breathing strategies to maintain physical and mental health, including climate anxiety; and showcased the impact of climate change on communication.
