“The Last of Us” thriller tv series put fungal disease in the spotlight. But how realistic is it? Thanks to our warming petri dish of a planet, the scenario isn’t as far-fetched as it sounds...

Recorded live at TEDxLondon Countdown 2023.
Next week: tune in to part two to hear Neil’s solution – protecting rainforests!
