Kate McKinnon and Hannah Tisdall answer questions on the future of energy. Kate says it's impossible for politicians to order people to stop using fossil fuel. But Hannah argues that we are in a better place now than two or three years ago. She thinks Russia's war against Ukraine can actually be responsible in part for this.
This episode is part two of our live event on economic growth. In May 2023, journalist Kamal Ahmed, was joined by three influential economists, Kate Raworth, Helen Thompson, and Bim Afolami to discuss if we can indeed have prosperity without growth.
