In the fourth episode of our series on science, policy and a green recovery, our host Dr Rob Doubleday is joined by University of Cambridge political scientist Dr Cristina Peñasco and Columbia University's Adjunct Professor International and Public Affairs Christian Deseglise, who is also HSBC's Head of Sustainable Finance. They discuss topics including financing sustainable infrastructure, how covid-19 has changed the sustainable finance sector, the role of international institutions and global cooperation in getting to net zero, investment in green R&D, and the role of local government procurement in a green transition. 

This series is produced in partnership with Cambridge Zero.
