The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast

In this episode Stuart and William explore and examine a question from listener Maureen in Chalgrove, Oxfordshire, England, "People debate if inland wind turbines are nice or ugly.

In this episode Stuart and William examine a question from listener Rupert in Tring, Hertfordshire, England, "When it comes to arguing for human caused climate change, or against it, is it possible to base either viewpoint on facts, when much of what we face is still an unknown?". --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message

In this episode Stuart and William explore and examine a question from listener James in Greater Leys, Oxford, England, "Is the use of celebrity a good thing for getting across the awareness of the ecological emergency we're in? People I know hate certain celebrities, and immediately switch off to anything or any campaign that these celebrities are engaged with. For example, Jamie Oliver campaigned to improve school meals. Some parents I know were happy for their kids to eat crap meals, if it meant they didn't have to agree with Jamie Oliver". --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message

In this episode Stuart and William explore a question from listener Keith in Little Milton, Oxfordshire, England, "David Attenborough was asked, what we could all do to help the environment?

In this episode Stuart and William explore a question from listener Emily from Gothenburg, Sweden, "Centrism isn't exciting, but the extremes of an argument often are. You say the middle ground is where the agreement and understanding live, that lead to solutions in turn. How does the People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast makes centrism sexy?

In this episode Stuart and William explore a question from listener Mick in Garsington, Oxfordshire, England, "It's discussed that we need to aim for net zero carbon emissions by 2050, whether that's quick enough for capturing carbon already emitted remains to be seen. I have to say if this transition happens to quickly it could cause volatility in the oil industry, and effect the world economy hugely on a global, and local basis. How can balance and measure be used in this necessary transition?". --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thepeoplescountryside/message
