Can we fix climate change?

From the archives, an urgent case. The planet is sending signals: melting ice, wilder storms and shifting seasons. Can we crack this one before it’s too late? Dan and Michael start with the basics. Channel 4 News weather presenter Liam Dutton explains the difference between weather and climate, why greenhouse gases trap heat, and what almost twenty years of forecasting has shown him about records being broken. Then it’s on to the solutions, and some are stranger than you’d expect. Author Nicola Penfold makes the case for whale poo as a climate hero, Cindy Forde of Planetari describes solar panels printed onto windows and mangroves that lock away more carbon than rainforests, and young campaigners Amy and Ella Meek and Bella Lack explain where to start when a problem feels far too big.

This One's For The Dads

We have - rightly so - talked a lot about Mums, Mothers, Mamas and Mummies on the show. But this week we wanted to focus on the Dads, Papas, Pops and Daddies, and all that entails. Dad gags, Dad fear, Dad guilt and the expectation that comes with being a new Pops. Maybe, like Ollie, your Ma and Pa were separated? How does that affect your expectation? Maybe you're a solo Dad? Or half of a two Dads couple? We all have a lot in common, We wanted to share some of our feelings and fears, but also the joys that we've experienced over these first new baby months.
