Ways out of the energy crisisWe are in the middle of an energy and cost of living crises, and widening gap between the very rich and the rest of the people, while our increasing energy demand is fuelling strife and wars around the world, not least the war in Ukraine. We recorded this episode in late April, before the announcement of windfall tax and help with energy bills by the Chancellor in the UK.

That depletion makes nature (and hence us humans) vulnerable to climate change. Any investment in nature is investment in adaptation but where do we start? On 28th February 2022, IPCC – Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, published its report on impacts of climate change, our vulnerabilities to it and how we can adapt. They issued a stark warning that climate change is already happening and humans have already caused irreversible changes to nature. They also made unflinchingly clear that we are running out o...2022-03-2137 min

Not just their own emissions, but also the emissions they facilitate? What does it have to do with you? Have you heard about green mortgages, green loans and investments? In previous episodes, we talked quite a bit about how we can spend our money on a variety of things, from as little as a re-usable mask, to as large as installing a heat pump or buying an electric vehicle.

She worked her way through youth theatre (a clear argument for good value for public money!), studying drama at University of East Anglia, and recently culminating in creating plays that make the distant and difficult relevant here and now. We talked about how the current discourse around climate change could be divisive and how listening to what individuals care about can help make better policies.

We talked about the festive / holiday season last year, in season 1. Not being able to meet up with family due to COVID made us focus more on the true gifts of spending time, showing love and support rather than spending money, buying the next toy, indulging in festive spending perhaps even beyond our means.
