Zack Polanski: Wild Card at the Wild Summit

Recorded live at the Wild Summit, Zack Polanski, leader of the Green Party of England and Wales, sits down with David Oakes to talk about what his "Green Britain" could actually look like. They probe the paradox at the heart of nature access, whether the Green Party's environmental and social-justice instincts really pull in the same direction, and why Zack thinks capping corporate money in politics is a necessary precondition for making our country more full of nature. Along the way: commitments on bottom trawling and grouse moors, the UK's legal target to protect 30% of green and blue spaces by 2030, and a belief that education lies at the heart of all of it. With time running out for the planet, champions of biodiversity are in short supply near the ballot box. Under Zack's leadership, is Britain destined for a Green Party - or just green, partly?
