Jeremy Brown

Jeremy Brown grew up in England where he developed an enthusiasm for the weather from a young age. As a teenager he was shocked to discover how humans were impacting the weather, which he witnessed first-hand from seeing retreating glaciers in the Swiss Alps. Applying his creative side, he enjoyed painting dramatic Alpine landscapes (capturing their beauty before climate change takes its toll). For his studies he completed an integrated master's degree in Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia, followed by a time working in local government. Between 2018 and 2020, Jeremy has been studying another master's, in 'Climate Change: History, Society and Culture' at King's College London. This is where he met Katy, The Renegades' lead illustrator, who brought Jeremy's initial ideas to life. His aim is to bring the message of the climate emergency to young adults and children in a way that's hopefully quite entertaining ! In his spare time Jeremy enjoys watching a mixture of Marvel superhero films and British sitcoms.
