Dave Borlace - Part 2

Dave Borlace is my guest on this episode of Inside Ideas. Our conversation is split into two parts. Born just 4 months before man first landed on the moon back in 1969, Dave Borlace has been conscious of environmental issues since studying for a Technology Degree with the Open University in the late 1990s. In early 2017 Dave read a seminal book called ‘A Farewell to Ice’, written by the arctic research scientist Professor Peter Wadhams. That book was an epiphany that set Dave off on a quest to create climate communication videos that aim to decode the sometimes overwhelmingly complicated and confusing scientific information around climate change, with the objective of explaining the concepts in the sort of plain English that everyday folks can understand. His YouTube channel, Just Have a Think, now has over 100,000 subscribers. Through his weekly videos, Dave seeks to understand the issues that face our civilisation in the 21st Century and focusses on the potential solutions that will save as many lives as possible and hopefully bring about a greater level of equality in the world.
