How do we connect Climate and Nature across all UK Government departments? Hear from Dr Roz Savage MP as she brings forward a brand new Bill to Westminster that aims to exactly that. Co-hosted by The Right Honorable John Gummer, Lord Deben, former Chair of the UK Climate Change Committee.
As we record this episode at the start of January, wherever you are in the world your news is likely to be filled with images of the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, or temperatures well below freezing alongside flooding across much of the UK.
And whilst climate and it’s impact on weather might be making the headlines, we know that nature and the biodiversity crises are inexorably linked to this challenge.
So in todays episode we explore just how linked climate and nature are – and potentially could be in UK legislation. Ahead of the Climate and Nature Bill heading to Westminster we're joined by Dr Roz Savage MBE, the MP who is bringing the bill forward.
Our Co-host is the former Chair of the UK Governments Climate Change Committee and the longest serving Secretary of State for the Environment for the British Government, The Right Honorable The Lord Deben.
