Is there such a thing as true altruism? How much difference can we, as individuals, really make to the state of the environment? Why do charity bike-riders make Natalie so angry?

We welcome comedian and science communicator, Alanta Colley, to the pod to share some of her thoughts on the human centred design process, neoliberalism, the Drawdown project, and the plight of the lame-footed duck (NB not an actual animal). Custard attempts to drink Alanta's tea and snuggles the occasional microphone.
