Mike Berners-Lee – Climate of Truth: Why We Need It and How to Get It

  • Main Theatre
Mike Benners

We have the technology we need for a cleaner and healthier future, so why are we still accelerating into a polycrisis of climate, food security, biodiversity, pollution, inequality and more?

The bestselling author of There is No Planet B looks at the challenge from new angles. He gets right under the skin of our failures so far, to uncover what it will take to do better at last. The result is original, inspiring and practical. Anyone asking, 'what can each of us do right now to help?' will find inspiration in this practical and important book.
