Do you want the good news or bad news first? 

Good news: here in the UK it’s a sunny Friday on the cusp of a bank holiday weekend. 

Bad news: Shiz cray. 

Could go either way: this is one of 3 holiday weekend episodes. 

Definitely good news: Lydia Collas of UK think tank Green Alliance and Rupert Read of Climate Majority Project have incisive analysis of what we’re seeing over here. And we discuss Green Alliance’s analysis of how climate effects are already hitting British household finances, in the wake of the UK Climate Change Committee’s scathing report on climate adaptation. 

Thanks

In case you hadn’t noticed, people not shaving the truth as they see it in order to maintain or get funding is a problem. 

We’re 18 months+ into this mission, and we’ve never needed your help more. If you think what we’re doing isn’t complete crap, and if you can, we’d very much appreciate your support at any level you can afford. To help us keep this going.

All the Exit Music

Until The Man comes for us we will continue to pair our outstanding theme music licensed from outstanding UK band Suncharmer with an outro that is a form of commentary for each episode. 

Enjoy.

We will be back soon with some UK election recap and the ‘vibe shift’ that seems to have gone transatlantic, featuring friends 

Adam Bell, Dave Vetter, and Holly Brazier-Tope from Green Alliance, to talk through the Tony Blair Institute vibe shift, the election of climate deniers into government for the most climate-at-risk areas in the UK, and more. Just to add to the merriment of the nation this bank holiday weekend.
