What do the UK’s party-political shifts in the past few years tell us about the prospects for future climate action? Have the electoral conditions that created Britain's climate progress now fallen apart? And, if climate policy only works when it survives the next election, what would make it politically durable - not just for one parliament, but for a generation?

Amy talks with Caroline Lucas, a writer, campaigner, and the first ever Green Party MP. Caroline was leader of the Green Party of England and Wales for many years, and, before taking her seat in Westminster, she had been a local councillor and then a Member of the European Parliament. She is currently Professor of Practice in Environmental Sustainability at the University of Sussex.
