Sangita Myska continues her search for the world’s brightest ideas that might make Britain better. Each week, we hear from a different innovator, trying to solve a different problem – and then stress test their idea with a panel of leading experts.

Britons are facing political upheaval, economic shock and a cost of living crisis. Some environmentalists fear this has pushed a bigger, existential threat off the agenda - climate change.

In this episode of Positive Thinking, could our innovator have a solution to help reinvigorate the climate debate?

Sangita meets Anab Jain from Superflux, a creative studio that makes art installations and films that tackle big policy problems, especially climate change. Her aim is to give decision-makers and the public a visceral experience of what the future could be like if they don’t act now – or the positive future we could have if they do.

Can ‘feeling’ the future create meaningful action to solve the climate crisis?

Our expert panel:
Tom Burke, the chairman and founding director of the think tank E3G – Third Generation Environmentalism.
Olivia Laing, writer, critic, former environmental activist and author of Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency.
Per Espen Stoknes, psychologist, former Green Party MP in Norway, and author of What We Think About When We Try Not To Think About Global Warming.
