Climate Impact Storyteller

I’m Maren Krings, a German Climate Impact Storyteller passionate about exploring and sharing solutions for social and climate justice. On this channel, I’ll dive into fascinating topics derived from my global field research, blending insights from my work in photography, filmmaking, content writing, and keynote speaking.

With a B.F.A. in Photography and another in Climate Change Studies and Environmental Science, my journey since 2016 has taken me to 36 countries across four continents, documenting the resurgence of industrial hemp. My latest book, H is for HEMP, highlights my photographic and audio-visual investigations of over 200 projects and interviews with 80+ experts, showcasing hemp’s remarkable potential for climate resilience and social justice.

My mission is to continue challenging myself in my lifestyle, travels, and work to uncover more sustainable ways of living.
