Podcast episode: "Can degrowth save the climate?" Science Weekly, Professor Lord Nicholas Stern

Since the 1960s, global GDP has been rapidly rising and living standards have reached record highs. But something else has been rocketing up too – carbon emissions. For years, scientists and economists have been asking: is it possible to grow without heating and polluting the Earth?

GSoS Chair and Co-founder, Professor Lord Nicholas Stern, speaks to Madeleine Finlay on the future of economic growth in an episode entitled, "Can degrowth save the climate?".

This episode is part of the Guardian Science Weekly podcast's Beyond Growth series.
