Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!

This is part 3 of an April-long miniseries curated by Pip entitled 'Climate Solutions For Realists'.

Our third guest is Greenpeace CEO AREEBA HAMID.

A really great chance to hear from someone who could not be more involved with Greenpeace, in a capacity which has Areeba overseeing all that is happening in the company and from a vantage point which allows views into the - let's face it - incredibly shady world of oil companies. Companies which have seemingly taken notes from cartoon supervillains and considered it a good look. Areeba goes into really awesome depth with facts and knowledge (attributes which these days are not always celebrated) about such topics as the eternal bête noir of Shell, the doubling down of companies on all the bad behaviour, hiding research, greenwashing and sportswashing and public image, the David and Goliath energy of huge corporations chasing down movements like Greenpeace, how Greg from Succession foretold an event in Greenpeace's day to day, Shell's PR disaster, and how companies will always lose to humour and comedy. With the echo of the motto 'Stop Drilling And Start Paying' ringing in our ears, enjoy this episode with someone who can help shed some light on such sour times.
