Mike Berners-Lee talks to Tanya Steele at the Edinburgh International Book Festival
Warnings of looming environmental catastrophe rain down on us with increasing frequency, and only the most ardent climate change sceptics deny we live at a crucial point for the Earth's future. For this event, filmed live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival, sustainability expert Mike Berners-Lee joined WWF’s Tanya Steele, for a conversation in which he cuts through the noise offering practical advice on how we can avoid calamity, all drawn from his book There is No Planet B, a ‘Handbook for the Make or Break Years’.
