GOING GREEN: ECO-DOGMA OR SALVATION?
A new #BattleFest recording from the Battle of Ideas festival 2021:
www.battleofideas.org.uk/session/goin…r-salvation/
In partnership with the Freiblickinstitut.
How can we solve a problem like climate change? Should it be treated as an emergency that should subsume all other priorities? Do green policies even work or do they make matters worse? Is the problem that political and corporate rhetoric about taking action is just superficial ‘greenwash’, being seen to be green rather than making fundamental changes? Has the political consensus around climate change robbed voters of a chance to have our say?
Listen to Dr Shahrar Ali, Sabine Beppler-Spahl, Heydon Prowse, Austin Williams and Alastair Donald discuss.
