Can a 50 minute film change the way we think about climate change? This week, we explore the National Emergency Briefing, a powerful new film bringing together nine experts to explain the scale of the climate and nature crisis. But is focusing on worst-case scenarios the best way to inspire action? Are we overlooking the role of individual choices? And can a film shown at community screenings really reach beyond those who already care about climate change? 

Plus, are WKD blue kegs rubbish or not, what is the glitter in haircare products, how will carrier bags be used in our dream shop, and have we annoyed Denbighshire council?

Join hosts James Piper and Robbie Staniforth as they delve into the world of recycling, hopefully having fun along the way. One thing is for sure, they will talk absolute rubbish from start to finish.
