In the final episode of this series, we talk about the increasing impact of climate change, and the loss of our seasons. Also - we ponder why on earth we need nuclear fusion when we’ve got the wind and the sun?  We also talk about Dale’s book, Manifesto - available to pre-order now-

We’ll be back in early September 2020.  Thanks for listening.

The new book from climate change denier Michael Shellenberger is getting plenty of attention - and we give it some more. We talk vegan BBQs, carbon petrol, and whether Dale really owns a helicopter?  We also get an update on Dale’s book, Manifesto – available for pre-order now on the Forest Green Rovers web shop.

As Donald announces $3bn support for fossil fuels we discuss what this means for fighting the climate emergency, especially when rising average temperatures are predicted.  We also discuss Dale's forthcoming book, The Manifesto - where you invest your pension to save the planet, and tackle a bumper mailbag of your questions - including Chinese nuclear power plants, Vegemite or Marmite and more. 

With Sizewell C costing £20bn to build, and power WAY more expensive than offshore wind, Dale wonders why the UK is still backing nuclear power? We take aim at Drax too - having broken the country’s 2 month coal-free streak. We also answer your questions and talk Marmite and Robert Jenrick.

We’ve celebrated two months in the UK without coal power, but how do we get to carbon neutral?  We look at what we need to do. Dale answers your questions, talks Vegan cheese replacements and we hear more from Trump – who just can’t stop.

We review the Cummings and goings of the UK government’s top advisor and answer your questions as Dale reveals he’s back at work on a brand-new electric motorbike – the Ion Horse.  There’s a couple of swearwords as Dale gets angry about Trump.

After a call to Ian’s radio show, Dale talks about how Extinction Rebellion have got under people’s skins and why the end of diesel vehicles can’t come soon enough.  We’ve got more of your questions, and unbelievably, Dale backs Donald Trump, but not for long. 

Dale believes airlines and polluting businesses shouldn’t be saved from the coronavirus pandemic if they don’t commit to a greener future.  We discuss how the world will adapt, and why it can’t just be business as usual.   We also talk about Michael Moore’s new documentary which takes aim at the green movement and VIVA’s 3 in 4 campaign. 

We’re deep in the midst of the coronavirus crisis - but the huge steps we are taking to save lives could equally be used to save the planet.   Dale and Ian discuss more news from lockdown - and how this is a chance not to get back to the old ‘normal.’  There’s also more from The Donald - will the virus kill his presidency? 

We're already seeing a drop in pollution and clean skies - the lack of pollution is visible from space too - Coronavirus is causing damage and havoc globally right now - but it’s increasingly showing the planet another way to live.  Dale answers your social media questions and Trump talks, and talks, and talks. 

Could government’s fight climate crisis with the same vigour as they are battling the coronavirus outbreak? Dale explains why fighting climate change and living sustainably doesn’t mean a backward step, while Ian develops a man crush on UK Chancellor Rishi Sunak.  Also, Trump has coronavirus under control - or does he? 

Hear why Dale, George Monbiot and Jolyon Maugham are challenging the UK government’s commitment to becoming zero carbon thanks to their archaic planning policy that favours fossil fuel developments.  We also cover coronavirus for the first-time (things have moved quickly since then!)

We’re not getting excited by the news that Heathrow aims to go carbon neutral.  We delve into the issues facing airports and flying - and just how this guilty industry is responding to environmental pressure. 

Also, Dale answers more of your questions, and we’ve still got time for some Donald Trump acting dumb - or is he acting?

The government has bought the end of fossil fuel cars to 2035. Or has it? Find out more from Dale. We also answer more of your questions and we hear from Donald Trump. 

Dale grapples with whether climate change talks at Davos will amount to anything  -  especially when a Prince, the Donald and Greta turn up. We discuss whether wind energy is really a planet saver, and tackle your listener questions too. Trump discusses dishwashers too. What?

Dale breaks down the Chinese polluters myth, and why Australian politicians continue to do nothing while their own country is on fire. We also answer your questions, and hear more windmill wisdom from Donald Trump.

Dale digests the biggest Labour defeat for decades and discusses what's next?  We find out whether he might stand for parliament, answer more of your questions and hear more from Donald Trump.

Dale hopes something good will come from COP25 -  the UN climate change summit in Madrid.  We answer some listener questions, and find out why the cops paid Dale a visit.

Dale delves into the Labour party manifesto and reveals why they are his only green choice in the 2019 UK General Election.  He also answers your questions, and there’s also another Dollop of Trump.

Dale’s dedicated his life to following the same principles since the 90s. Find out more about the manifesto that guides his work.  Also – hear more from our new guru, Donald Trump and whether flying is ok when you’re an environmentalist?

Find out why Dale funded an attempt to stop a no-deal Brexit - with guest Jo Maugham of the Good Law Project - and what does he think of Greta Thunberg?
