Patagonia has put together a three-part series about the climate with Lucy Siegle telling the story via a podcast to energise the planet and people.
Meanwhile, The Guardian reports on a move by Australia's Federal Government which has even deepened the country's climate shame in the story "‘Vandals’: Victoria, Queensland fume over federal climate intervention".
