About this listen

The economic system, the energy system, the agriculture system - all of society's systems - need to change in response to climate breakdown. But just how difficult is it to change systems especially when they are supported by policy and the status quo. What will systems change look like and will it bring a better quality of life to all? These are some of the questions we tackle in this episode 'A Systems Response to Climate Change'
