In the wake of International 350 Day and direct actions in the US & Europe drawing attention to the malign influence of corporations on national and international climate action, we ask, is it time that we stopped business putting the brakes on climate policy?
Produced by Phil England for Climate Radio and ResonanceFM in London, England. Please drop me a quick note if you broadcast this programme at phil@switch-off.co.uk. Many thanks! www.climateradio.org www.resonancefm.com
In a break from our usual format we weave recent highlights from the independent media landscape into a corporate-critical narrative.
