Hello! It’s our 200th episode! We’re talking about the groundbreaking Environmental Justice Commission, which has just published an ambitious plan for putting fairness at the heart of tackling the climate crisis. Caroline Lucas and Hilary Benn, two of the co-chairs of the commission, talk us through some of the key ideas. Then Paul Nowak from the TUC explains why it is vital to put the interests and voice of workers at the centre of the transition.
AND to celebrate reaching the big 200 we’re joined by voice of Reasons to be Cheerful, Gayle Lofthouse!
