Sustainable Truth

from The Sustainable Futures Report · host Anthony Day

The Met Office says the slowdown in global warming is over, but does everyone believe it? Is climate change a really urgent issue? Carbonbrief takes issue with the Daily Mail over this. Are we doing enough recycling? The Marine Conservation Society sees straws in the wind, but sadly they're plastic. The British government announces a Green Finance Taskforce. Haven't I heard of something like that before? And then there's the Green Supply Chain. Listen up before you eat that chocolate! Sustainability, or at least renewable energy, seems to be becoming a political football down under, and they're growing salads down underground. Hot news from the Sahara on the energy front. Energy from there might help us replace all those diesel cars which got another bad press this week. Or maybe we'll get it from a new solar plant, plus batteries, just commissioned nearer to home. And would you rather trust Boris or Matilda?
