"We live in a highly unjust world, and climate change is one of the most unjust phenomena you can think of. Where we in the globe and north have built our wealth, our standard of living and our democracypre isely on destroying the political systems," he says. "What that statement actually implies is that we are valuing our society stability higher than that elsewhere."
This week's podcast is from our friends at Intelligence Squared Germany who hosted a live debate in Berlin last week on whether the EU's 'Green Deal', a plan to deliver both economic growth and carbon neutrality, is really achievable. The debate was held in partnership with The European Council on Foreign Relations and featured Franziska Brantner of the German Green Party taking on renowned climate activist Dr. Tadzio Müller. It was hosted by BBC journalist Damien McGuinness.
