1. The 100 Mile Wildlife Corridor

   I really enjoyed this Radio 4 Open Country podcast about the Weald to Waves project. It was lovely hearing about the work to protect the River Ouse (Sussex), neighbouring projects to Lewes and from representatives from Lewes Climate Hub.

2. Tech Won’t Save Us – Plastic Recycling Is a Scam

   Fascinating discussion about the state of recycling in the 21st century and a look at how the plastic industry has historically reframed the problem and blame on consumers.

3. Material Matters – Bas van Abel – Repair and conflict minerals

   Great conversation with Fairphone founder Bas van Abel about the trials and tribulations of starting a business and product focused on longevity, repairability and ethically sourced minerals.

   If consumerism was a religion we’d all be extremists.
