Join Faheem Nasir, Amaar Ahmad & Sabah Ahmad for Friday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Climate Change’ and ‘Disillusioned Youth?’ Climate Change Scientists have announced that Earth has likely crossed its first major climate tipping point - the irreversible decline of warm-water coral reefs. Once among the most vibrant ecosystems on the planet, these reefs are now bleaching and dying on a global scale. Their loss is an indication that humanity has stepped into a new phase of the climate crisis. This stark milestone has reignited the haunting question: Is it too late to save our planet? Disillusioned Youth? What lies behind the Gen Z protests sweeping across the world today? Why are our young people less happy and more disillusioned? What is driving this discontent? These are some of the issues we would like to address as we look into what the future holds for our young people. Join us between 5 and 6 as we go on to consider the importance of good governance and role models for our young people. Guests: Signe Norberg - Director of Policy and Public Affairs, ISEP Eban Goodstein - Author, Educator and Director of the Bard Center for Environmental Policy Steve Micklewright - Chief Executive of Rewilding Charity Trees for Life and Co-Convenor of the Scottish Rewilding Alliance Ian Hanington - Senior Writer and Editor of David Suzuki Foundation Sarah Arnold - Senior Policy Advisor at The King’s Fund Bobby Duffy - Professor of Public Policy and Director of the Policy Institute at King’s College, London Dr Elisabeth Loose - Research & Engagement Manager at the John Smith Centre Producers: Maria Ahmad Tooba and Nabeela Shah
