Questions We Didn't Get To Discuss The People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast

    • Nature

In today's bonus episode, your hosts Stuart and William, discuss questions from the first ever Environmental Debate Live & Unscripted event that happened in the Autumn of 2021. The podcast format, expanded and evolved, then set in front of a live audience.

During the pilot live event, that took place on the 25th September 2021, the audience were given the opportunity to place a question, that they would like to be discussed in the second half of the show. The questions were placed in Stuart's hat, and then drawn out at random.

Unfortunately, we only had time to discuss two of the seven questions received. These were;


Neil Rowe asked: Is it the cow or the how? Badger Cull, Pro's and Con's?
Sue Roberts asked: Building 100,000 houses in Oxfordshire will use up most of the carbon budget Oxfordshire can emit to keep its climate contribution below 1.5c. How can we stop the juggernaut of unneeded homes for greed not need?

The questions we didn't get around to discussing were:


Richard Harding didn't get around to asking: How can we engage more people in sustainable living? Most people want to but seem unable to take action?
Laura didn't get around to asking: Should we cook with electricity or gas?
Lyn didn't get around to asking: Electric cars need to have disposal of batteries sorted out b4 change to electric. The components need to be disassembled and this needs more research as the current batteries can't be taken apart. Disposal/recycling has not been thought through?
Martin didn't get around to asking: What's the environmental footprint of manufacturing batteries for EV's?
Carol didn't get around to asking: I'm worried about the impact of housing development on Warren Meadow on Town Furze in Oxford will have on Lye Valley.
