EP.222 - GEORGE MONBIOT


Listen Later

Adam and British writer, journalist, and environmental activist George Monbiot go for a walk around the parks and woodland of Bristol and talk about the harmful aspects of farming, what George does for a good time, why being sent away to boarding school was a disaster, responding to criticism of his work, why he changed his mind about nuclear power, and what gives him hope.

This conversation was recorded on 26th April, 2023

Thanks to Séamus Murphy-Mitchell for production support and conversation editing.
